Comment: Could make a pair with 1.67 if you don't mind minor differences in size (or we re-cut both to identical size). Pairing aside, in a single pendant you will have a firework of rainbow colors flashing and blinking over 14x6mm. Snatch one of these new Welo opals while they are affordable (not to say 'cheap' but if you study high-end Australian opal you'll find another digit, or two, for equal beauty). We did make videos, if still amateurish ones, of similar opals with light in motion for reference, see here. Though every opal is wildly different you can transfer the magic of color-play to other precious opals. A local splatter of dots is visible only under the lens, and only if you look hard on our images, sometimes in colors, sometimes dark.
