Description
It's hard to believe that opals come from the same element that makes sand, but it's true. This book features that fact and many more about this beautiful gem. From the mines of southern Australia to pieces of very expensive jewelry, readers will see how opals go from raw stones to a fantastic finished product. Beautiful photographs present the rainbow of colors that brilliantly emit from these gems.
