Why are the opals reserved?
We do not publicly showcase a select few opals if they are of high calibre for a number of reasons. One reason is that some buyers of this quality do not want these opals published on the internet.
Furthermore It is possible that these opals will be on exhibition at a gemstone show. Some of these include Tucson, Las Vegas, Hong Kong, Singapore and Tokyo gem and jewelry expos. Additionally, others are Lightning Ridge or Gold Coast opal shows.
