Owyhee Blue Opal

Owyhee Blue Opal is from the Owyhee Mountains of Eastern Oregon.
The hardness is between 5.5 and 6.5 and is very durable.It is considered a “common opal” because it does not display any play of color (fire).
This opal takes a glassy polish.
The rich blue coloring is reminiscent of the finest Blue Chalcedony but with the translucence and golden highlights of Oregon Opals. When held to a light, even tumbled pieces of me have the wonderful glow of opal-essence.
