Indonesian material is particularly valued for its warm color palette and the way organic patterning interacts with whatever play-of-color or opalescence is present. Because opal as a species sits at 5.5-6.5 on the Mohs scale and can be sensitive to sudden temperature changes and ultrasonic cleaning, designers typically set it in protective bezels and avoid torch work near the stone during fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gem Enthusiast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48101158813883,"sku":"WO260","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/8214\/1627\/files\/il_fullxfull.8295903725_ruvr.jpg?v=1783975709","url":"https:\/\/gementhusiast.shop\/products\/opalized-wood-pair-petrified-wood-opal-13404","provider":"Gem Enthusiast","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
