Solid Boulder Opal Cabochon – Blue Streaks & Soft Broad Flash

The Tigereye - A boulder opal with soft blue streaks flowing across warm ironstone in a way that subtly resembles a tiger’s face, the gentle broad‑flash movement giving the “features” a lifelike, shifting expression as the stone turns.

This polished, low‑dome boulder opal cabochon features soft blue streaks that flow across the surface, highlighted by gentle broad‑flash movement as the stone catches the light.

The natural ironstone matrix adds warmth and grounding, giving the piece that classic boulder opal character.

With its double‑sided finish and smooth oval shape, it’s a versatile stone for jewellery makers - ideal for a pendant, bezel setting, or wire‑wrapped design.

Brightness 2 keeps the colours subtle and understated, perfect for earthy, minimalist styles. Sourced directly from miners, this cabochon is a one‑of‑a‑kind Australian opal with natural charm.
