Blue rough opal gem had me stumped on how to cut it

Welcome to Black Opal Direct!

We're taking the top off this opal Spring Break style.

This gorgeous Lightning Ridge nobby opal turned into an even gorgeous-er cut stone, with a little help from yours truly.

We'll cut this stunning opal and chat about what to do when you have residual black potch on the face of an opal, and how to tackle sand spots and chips in the face!

This gets about as weird as my Aunty after a few too many birthday Mimosa's. And hopefully just as entertaining.

Oh, and, by the way... no other tops were removed in the making of this video.
