Product Specifications Material Astral Opal™ (Lab-Grown Synthetic Opal, 80% Silica, 20% Polymer) Color Play Primary: Coral Pink | Fire: Green & Yellow Grain Sizes Fine (0.3mm - 0.5mm), Medium (1mm - 2mm) Hardness 4 on the Mohs scale Heat Resistance Up to 250°F / 120°C Why Choose Our Crushed Astral Opal™? Aquatic Fire & Color: Meticulously grown to display a beautiful mix of pinks, oranges, and greens that mimic precious marine life. Unmatched Stability: Guaranteed not to crack, craze, or yellow over time, offering superior durability over natural opal. Easy to Work With: Softer composition is perfect for inlay, turning, and cabbing without splintering. Coverage: One gram is enough for 3-5 standard ring inlays or to fill a 1.5" x 1.5" (4cm x 4cm) area at a depth of approx. 1mm. Creative Applications Jewelry & Ring Inlay: Ideal for creating oceanic, nautical, or nature-themed custom jewelry. Custom Woodworking: Creates a vibrant pop of color against both light and dark woods, like maple or walnut. Resin Art & Casting: The perfect choice for ocean-themed resin pours, coasters, and art pieces that capture the sea. Pen Turning: Craft custom pen blanks that evoke the warmth and beauty of a coral reef. Pro-Tip: The opal's true vibrancy is revealed when "wet" or mixed with a binder (like resin or CA glue). For the most dramatic fire, use a dark base, such as black paint or dyed epoxy.
