#0103CP12m Size: 13mm x 9mm x 3mm. 2.75c. This pretty green opal is quite deceptive on color, as it’s color depends a lot on light. In brighter light, it’s mostly greens with some blue, but in other various situations, the colors can be yellow, orange, red, as well as purple, blue, or […]

Colors: just about everything. Visible from many angles, including sides and bottom
