Thank you for a segment on Opals: Michelle has a dream marraige/job! Opals have been my favorite stone since childhood, and Lightening Ridge Opals are the bomb diggity! So much color, so much variety. Someday I will own one for sure!❤

Wow, nice stones, great work Michelle

Fyi those cuts that make you sick... best learning opportunities. Mess up an expensive stone and you go over what went wrong a few times...

Opal or I'd to say "Gemstone of Disaster" creates by nature from the ancient living organism. Its Glitter came from protein which only produce by living organism. Fire Opal from Mexico creates from the meteor struck 65 YA. In Indonesia we have Banten Opal which creates by continuous eruptions of KRAKATOA. Which has burried many living organism and human ALIVE.

awesome segment. thanks for providing information to those who are not familiar with australian opals.
viewers, be careful, opalholism is real!

OMG My lovely Gem😻😻😻😻😻😻😻😻

How can we buy from here. Is she have website? Which you share for us thanks

I love the color play in the opals. I have a large white opal ring, that has a lot of color, but it's not very noticeable. My favorite opal ring is a smaller black opal with blue and green colors flashing. It's set with a black enamel setting. It's My daughter's favorite too and she's waiting for it. 😊🥰

I have a black opal pendant that's been passed down into my family for almost 100 years. It's my favorite piece and I treasure it. Opals are my favorite stone

Thank you for video with magical Black opals :))

I love all the lightening ridge crew……….very cool (gal from oz)

YES!!! OPALS!!

You need a microscope to even see them.

Hi, I am looking for a buyer for gemstone in Australia, specially in Sydney. I am planning to bring precious Ceylon gem stones to Australia in coming months...

I can sort of see why people like them, but to me black opals look like someone’s cat vomited on a shag rug.

😁🇦🇺

Wow. 5 years without finding opal when that's your whole income. Crazy.

I love opals.they are pretty.

Thanks for sharing. It blows my mind still that opal can form from 7,000 to 120 millions years ago. ❤

The potch it's called it can be black or gray.

Really Appreciate The Guests You Invite & Admire The Efforts You Put For These Amazing Unique Experiences

Exellent ❤

I’ll thank Michelle even more if she sends me one of them large opals!!😂

Michelle’s life is dedicated to Opal and yet she comes on this channel wearing diamond ear rings. Debeers who have a monopoly on the very common diamond market tried everything they could to destroy the Opal industry. They knew that diamonds are so common as to have no real value and the only way to keep the suckers buying them was to quash competition from rarer gems with superior colour, real rarity and true value. They spread rumour about Opals being bad luck by commissioning books from popular authors, they bought Opal mines in Hungary ( The main supplier at the time ) and closed them down. Why would you ware a clear piece of glass like rock when you could ware a one of a kind piece of unique jem stone glistening with a one of a kind pattern and dazzling colour ?

That large red flagstone piece, simply stunning. Can't believe they didn't have a cloth on the table, one accidental drop could cost a lot of money.

Name of her business?

Nicely done interview enjoyed this

❤

Sooo beautiful! I can stare at them all day. Black Opal, one of the rarest gemstones in the world, more rare than a diamond. It’s my ultimate dream ring! Omg I’ll be over the moon if I was proposed to with one! 🥹💍 I keep hinting at my SO about it 😂

I use leather and diamond polish

We still have visions of color dancing in our heads from Michelle's wonderful opals! Which was your favorite? And would you like to see more kinds of opal on this channel? Let us know!
