Description Most opal gets cut free of its rock. Boulder opal keeps it. Some of us do too: the hometown, the accent, the habit we swore we’d drop.
The color forms in thin seams inside ironstone, so the cutter leaves the rock attached, and no two come out alike. This one runs blue and green through brown stone. It’s for anyone who brought a little of where they’re from along.
About the stone Boulder opal: opal that forms in cracks in ironstone in Queensland, Australia, and is cut with the rock left on as its backing.
