Fire Opals from Mexico, Queretaro

Unknown Owner

Precious Fire Opals in a water filled glass display dome from Queretaro, Mexico. These are normally stable for gems about 1/2 the time, but for display purposes we kept these wet as they showed off the "play of color" better. ex Christopher Wentzell collection.
