This needs to be seen to be believed!
Incredible cherry red, fire red and orange gold together with green, turquoise and blue- all bright.
These fire colours moves like a crackling wood fire on a cold winters night.
Absolutely stunning play-of-colour from every angle. The bright reds and orange gold explodes across the surface of the opal in rolling flashes, the equally as beautiful green and turquoise play between the reds and orange. The red are always visible. Brilliant in all lights.
