In this video, I take an opal that I bought for $125 about 6 years ago and work on it by grinding, cutting and polishing. The results are astonishing.
The opal is from Mintabie, SA, Australia. In the video, two Ethiopian opal stones from my last video are given away and two more opals are presented from giveaway in this video!
