Item Description
Featured are genuine Oregon, Juniper Ridge Opal. It is in its natural form as a gem rough/specimen, and is found in southeastern Oregon. Juniper Ridge, Oregon Opal appears as translucent clear 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. These particular gemstones have a range of bright orange amd butterscotch yellow color and still has some of the loose "host rock" attached.
