Item Name:
Cut Opal 5 Point Star 4mm - White with Red Fire
SKU:
CO-WRF-STAR5PT-4MM
Description:
This five-point star shaped cut opal measures 4mm and features a luminous white base color with brilliant red fire. Cut opals are precision-faceted gemstone cabochons that display the characteristic play-of-color unique to opal materials. The star shape provides multiple facets that enhance light refraction and color display, making these stones ideal for showcasing opal's optical properties in lampwork applications. The white body color with red fire represents a premium opal variety, where the light matrix creates a striking contrast that makes the red color flash appear vibrant and dynamic. Each stone is individually selected and cut to ensure consistent quality and visual appeal.
How it is used:
In lampworking, cut opals serve as decorative inlay elements for beads, pendants, and sculptural pieces. Lampworkers encase these pre-cut stones within soft glass or borosilicate glass during the heating process, creating striking focal points in finished jewelry. The five-point star configuration makes these opals particularly versatile for creating dimensional bead designs where the star shape can be positioned to catch light and emphasize the red fire. These stones are also used in fused glass work, where they can be incorporated into warm glass projects before kiln firing. The 4mm size is ideal for medium-scale beadwork and pendant applications where the opal's color display remains prominent without overwhelming the overall design.
