Hi All,
Fairly new to PS and joined last year when looking for a diamond. Anyway I have enjoyed looking at all the lovely stones and jewellery on here.
I think I would like a black opal but have no clue where to start looking or what I should look for! Almost likely to set it in to a pendant.
I saw a lovely black opal in a halo ring in a local jewellers and went weekly to peer through the window like a child in a sweet shop. It was second hand and I didn't really like the setting or the price (it's was £5,500) I live in the UK and most of the jewellers are high street stores that wouldn't have the expertise. Please can you suggest dealers or vendors that I could get a stone from. No preference on size and would prefer quality over quantity, max budget around the £1,000 mark ($1480 dollars at today's exchange rate) I thought I wanted dark with rainbow colours but today I have seen some (granted it was on ebay so may not be real) in green's and blue's. These caught my eye as I am an avid fan of the Aurora Borealis and it reminded me of the AB. Anyway all information and suggestions much appreciated and gratefully received.
