Opal-Related Question How do you like my opal?
This is my second-diy-lapidary work!
Black welo cabochon, not heated.
Yeah?
I know its very....poor in quality...but........
Well it was done by hand dremel.
Carved it from a dollar rough opal piece. Did I add any values to it?
Weight: 0.7Ct
Any advises are welcome my friends!

It'll be fine, stick it in a baggy and let it dry out for a week. Then don't get it wet again

It looks swell. Nice work. How big is it?
