How we cook Fairy Opal!

How we cook Fairy Opal!

Fairy Opal

Rough Fairy Opal untreated looks similar to sandstone and sometimes is difficult 
see the colour.

 

The rough Fairy Opal is then placed
in a mixture of sugar and water. This
process helps darken the opal while keeping the natural colour. 

 

The treated Opal is then wrapped
in some aluminum and cooked
over the fire.

 

The Fairy Opal is then shaped and polished to size showing a beautiful end result. 

 

I will flesh all the information out in the future but feel free to shoot us a message if you have any questions.

I do have youtube video of how to cook these beauties!
