I adore opals - there’s something so magical about them and that nature can make these miracles! Anyway I’ve got a few and wasn’t looking for another and then I saw this unusual one. I realise it’s not to everybody’s taste but I love the rutile in it! It’s on its way to me so here are the vendors photos!

That would make a very cool ring.
 
Fascinating opal!! It almost looks otherworldly---so neat!

Mesmerizing! It makes me think of coral reefs.

Do you have information on origin? Or how it was formed?

Ahhh! I remember seeing this for sale! It’s so cool! Like an aquarium!
 
Thanks everybody for your lovely replies. I had thought it look other worldy but actual you’re all right that it looks like an underwater coral reef! I’ve got a video that the vendor has but I can’t remember how to post it!!!!
 
I was just getting on here to say it looks like a drop of seawater complete with ecosystem. It's so amazing and I can't wait to see your photos of it.
 
That's one of the coolest opals I've ever seen. Really looking forward to seeing how you'll be setting it.
