Description:
Cut Opal 5 Point Star 4mm - Black with Red Fire is a five point star shaped cut opal that is black with a red fire. This opal is sold individually. The star shape gives you a crisp, recognizable silhouette that reads clearly in finished work, making it a strong choice when you want a small but high-impact focal accent.
How it is used:
This cut opal is used in lampworking as a decorative inclusion in borosilicate work. It is typically placed into a prepared seat or pocket in hot glass and then carefully encased to protect the opal and preserve optical depth. Artists often use small shaped opals like this in pendants, marbles, and detailed sculptural elements where the star outline can remain visible and the red fire can flash under different lighting angles. This handling and encasement guidance is based on standard lampworking practice for working with opal inclusions.
