17.01.2022 New in the store. Solid Boulder Opal Earrings (100% natural) Normally I would have set the opals so that the pattern matches however because the shapes were a bit different I decided to switch thing up. What do you think? #love #brisbanecity #opal #brisbane

16.01.2022 Its very rare for me to shape an opal into a "jellybean" shape but every so often rules are meant to be broken. #boulderopal @ Brisbane Opal Museum

02.01.2022 Fossicking is real hard work. To key to fossicking in Yowah is to find a patch of dirt that has been dug down to the opal level (where the nuts are). Update: Unfortunately the colour did not run in this stone.

01.01.2022 This #bigboulderopal stone has a river of opal within it. #picturestone #boulderopal #visitbrisbane

01.01.2022 A big THANKS to Tanel for building our display in the front room of the #brisbaneopalmuseum #visitbrisbane #brisbane
