The most beautiful stone I've ever seen.

This opal looks amazing, looks like it has a nebula in side of it.

Here is a link http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/21032/lot/1403/

It's called an American contraluz opal found" in Opal Butte, Oregon. Sold for around 20k US.

I would love to know exactly what was going on when that was formed , absolutely incredible.

That is a beauty!

I looked at another thing from this auction, as for what to do with "worthless" gemstone bombs: http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/21032/lot/1060/
Not so worthless there!

Hi Nikos, if you go to the link in the op, you will see another photo taken on a slight angle.

It's also worth clicking the "auction 21032" link just above the second image, some of the other pieces are amazing. And I think you'll find it's all legit.

Cheers
