ITEM DESCRIPTION
Featured is a genuine Oregon, Juniper Ridge Fire Opal. It is a natural formed as a gem found in southeastern Oregon. Juniper Ridge, Oregon Opal appears as a translucent clear to opaque gem. Oregon (fire) Opal is unlike any other opal. While most opals are renowned for the play of color and reflections from within, Oregon Opal is named for its fiery colors, including yellows, oranges, and reds. It may or may not show an opalescent "play of color", but is valued mostly for its intense colors. The Juniper Ridge material can often have a dark/black "dendritic" material that can run throughout the gem. This particular specimen displays three layers of color from solid black, a golden yellow-orange-red center, and a solid brown chocolate color on the bottom. There is even still some of the loose "host rock" attached.

Pictured is the actual gemstone being offered.
