Guess the opal
I was tickled pink that I won a $10 GC to Opal Auctions by being the first to guess these right! YAY!!
Anyhoo, I know some of you don't get on FB and I thought you might want to test your knowledge.
See if you can name all 4 types of opal?

Mysterious opals contain the wonders of the skies - sparkling rainbows, fireworks, and lightning, shifting and moving in their depths.

Re: Guess the opal
Congrats on the win, KJ! I won't play because I had just read the newsletter and seen the opals, so I know what they are without guessing.

Re: Guess the opal
Yeah. They are only sending you what you asked for when they intially asked.
Re: Guess the opal
I'll have to search the OA sight for a newsletter. I didn't know they had one!
It didn't take me long to spend my prize. I spent a bit more than $10 though... lol They haven't shipped yet.
I picked these up from Paul. First one was the most expensive and the smallest. I was trying to stay cheap but fell in love. This is only 1.55 ct. Then I added another LR Black and a small cheap piece.
(These aren't showing in the right order. The small one is in the tweezers. Then the cheap one is the gray wave.)
