Matrix opal reminds me of the aurora or a galaxy of opal displaying its play of colour across the stone.  This stunning cabochon from Andamooka, Australia has been treated to darken the host stone, allowing the opal to stand out.  More info about this "sugaring" treatment can be found on the treatment information pages accessible via your customer account login.

Stunning & unusual gemstone, suitable for the collector or the jeweller looking for something a little different.  

Information for jewellers about working with this gemstone can be found in the Jewellers’ quick reference guide to working with gemstones
