Picking an Opal to embed into Gem Silica - What's Your Choice?
Picking an Opal to embed into Gem Silica - What's Your Choice? Is an easy and straightforward project. It just takes patience and a good plan.
This whole event had an unusual beginning at a garage sale. SeaJay and I were out and checking out some garage sales. We came to this one where an older fellow was selling some of his Dads & Grandads rocks, agates, and some gems.
Well, knowing SeaJay and I, we were in a proverbial candy store for kids. I was in the garage looking at some really nice pieces that were going into
my bucket. She was outside looking over the many tables.
Well, I was chatting and paying for my haul (Ye Haw), then SeaJay came in and paid for hers. With particular mention of an old fashioned Almond Roca can kind of beat up and a sign on it saying FREE. Well, one quick look inside the can by SeaJay's keen eye for agates and some good old rockhounding tips, tricks, and secrets, and she had grabbed it
When we got home and checked out the contents of this beat-up old can and really took a look and wow! What a score. There was labradorite, crystal points, Chevron Amethyst, etc... and on and on in this can. We were stunned and feeling very blessed, and it was FREE! but the real score was the rock featured in this video. It's Gem Silica it's quartz stained with copper, with chromium inclusions.
So we are looking for feedback and comments on which one you think would be the best, and hopefully why you think it should be mounted into this Gem Silica.
If you'd like to email us with comments or suggestions or just to say hi, you can reach us here.
