Anybody see that fire opal

[ Edited ]

they had on last night little over 2,000 had diamonds in it too.

Reminded me I got a 8-10 ct Mexican fire opal I bought yrs ago

This one was Brazlian and it sold out. This one was 5 carets I think.

 

Mine doesn't have diamonds didn't want 'em just a big ol' stone.

Forgot I had it till I saw this one

I guess I'll have to wait for reviews before I decide . . .

 

It is a beautiful stone!  I love the color.

Did not see this one, but I have wanted one for a long time.

I love the color but the stone is too big for my taste.  Plus I would never have a couple thousand to spend like that, easy pay or not.

Jane was wearing the ring all night and I was certainly admiring it!  It is a real show stopper to look at but orange is not my color...

The stone is beautiful, but for my taste don’t care for the way it is set nor do I care for the diamond chips on the band. I think a stone like that shows it’s beauty best when it is just the stone. If you buy it, hope you enjoy. I do ❤️ Opals.

Mine is just the big ol' stone 10 cts I think I bought while on a tour of Mexico

Never forget we had to change buses and was told do not eat or drink for the time we'll be there.

Took us to a 'fine' jewelry store not just a on the street deal.

this is a Aztec design that has the aztec fringe in gold and gold band around the honking Mexican fire opal.  Can't even remember what I paid for it. Knowing me I bargained with the owner and got him down. LOL Never pay retail hahahahahah

@SharkE.  Beautiful ring.  From what I can see, the setting is striking too.  I'll take a honking  big stone any day.  It would be beautiful with fall rusts and browns, hunter green.  Don't forget to wear it.
