Comment: Neon colored flashing along the full body, back and front. Only 1.67 carat but 12x8mm to show. Pretty amazing even for opal. Such a gem explains the idea that opals inhabit a different planet than all other gemstones. Set in a pendant it will get attention until you might decide to slip it under your clothes when you get tired of compliments and questions. Must-see in motion, nothing comes close.
