Harlequin Opal?
Cutting OpalSep 15, 20261 min read

Is That Harlequin?

This piece of Mintabie rough had me genuinely excited before I even touched the wheel. A thick color bar with layers of squares stacked through it. That can mean one thing... harlequin. Well, I hope.

Potch on one side, sand on the other, a natural crack to navigate, and a Gemfish reading that wasn't giving much away. Every pass on the wheel was a step into the unknown and what emerged from that color bar was not what I was expecting.

Get ready to be as surprised as me ⬇😳

Hey Justin!
Turned out quite stunning indeed…But the moments about your dad and Saxon brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful, touching and meaningful. He’s watching and he’s proud. I just know it.
Sending love to you and yours
