Collectors fossilized Opal!! Fiery 22.18ct Ammolite

This stunning example of well preserved ammolite opal exhibits silky, full bodied color. Vibrant reds and oranges dominate this fossilized opal, accompanied by a brilliant blend of golds and greens that dance like flames across its face. This piece has fantastic size measuring 23.9mm x 17.9mm x 6.2mm, and its protective cover has been polished to a liquid luster.

To protect the delicate nature of ammolite opal, most cabochons receive a protective resin coating, but this high quality piece has been coated with a two-part epoxy, providing it with superior protection and giving it a Mohs hardness rating of approximately 8 out of 10 making it incredibly durable. This means that your ammolite is perfect for setting and daily wear, and can be polished if needed.
