"Le grand bleu"


What a beautiful blue......

Do you know the movie "Le grand bleu" which directed by Luc Besson?

It was a great movie. And when I see this black opal which has a combination of romantic blue colors, I think about the sad story of that movie; 2 men who were true friends and rivals at the same time since they were little, diving into the beautiful blue sea deeper and deeper with a dolphin and they never come back....

Have a lovely afternoon.

OPAL BEAD BRACELETS !!

ALL THE HARD WORK FOR SUCH A LOW PRICE...

OK, I am not whining here but introducing this beautiful bead bracelet for only A$50 (more or less..) is like BARGAINING OUR OPAL & OTHER SEMI-PRECIOUS GEMSTONE!!!

Can you see pink colored copper beads? Our staff has to make it into a rounded shape (each takes about 3~5 minutes) by special clear string, then we can arrange the precious gemstones the right orders, and finally we can work through cilicon cord for each stones to complete...

Concentration is required and definitely "CREATIVITY" is necessary when making this item! Like this?? Please contact us for further details.

REAL VALUE FOR REAL QUALITY...

A memorable BLACK OPAL MAN'S RING.  

The story begins as this...
A gentleman has brought this black opal ring, wanted it repaired because there was a deep crack on opal and also mentioned that he paid around AUD$5000 for a ring (10years ago). I suggested him to find a new opal loose stone to replace, since the crack was too deep to get fixed and unstable to continue wearing.

He agreed, then we took a ring to a jeweller nearby (along with the ring owner), found out right infront of us, that a cracked opal on the ring was not SOLID but DOUBLET OPAL. What a disappointment!! So, basically he has paid AUD$5000 for a plain 18K Yellow Gold, no diamond, no real black opal or wahtsoever...

Well, eventually he was happy to allow us to use his original gold casting and to put a new Black Opal (A$3600)as replacement. This is what his ring has turned out in the end, "real value for the real opal ring"!!!! He still is enjoy wearing a black opal ring daily.

OPAL COLORS...

Have you ever seen quality opal patterns and its colors been enlarged?   Well, incase you have not, here are some I'd like to share with you...

These are BLACK OPAL CUT OUTS and it's the actual NATURAL OPAL PATTERNS which has been enlarged ( x 20 times more). Just like the painting, right??!!?? 
The big difference between an ordinary painting & nature created painting is that an ordinary painting can easily be copied or repeated, but these natural piece of artworks are ONE AND ONLY, and it takes about 5 million years to complete.... 
How cool and precious is that!!!  Now, how much value are we talking about here?? (hahaha)

Good afternoon!!

Look at  this beautiful natural art....

It is an Australian Boulder opal (Solid) pendant.
It has a hole to let string through.

What can you imagine from this opal?

I see "Australia" in it!!

Coral Sea,the huge red and brown coloured ground, the outback, the Ayers Rock in the middle....

I hope you will enjoy its beauty...
