    ETHIOPIAN OPAL SCAMMERS BEWARE !!!!
    Come learn the quick and simple “Einstein” aka “KISS” method of testing Ethiopian hydrophane opals for possible polymer resin treatment. The presentation will include a hands-on demonstration of rough and cut testing so that everyone can witness the method and results with their own eyes, and then go do their own testing at gem shows and opal dealer’s shops.

    This video would have been even more interesting if it was recorded on a tripod! It's all over the place. Making me feel giddy.

    If this video wasn't filmed by Stephen Hawking, I am going to be seriously mystified by the biomechanical ineptitude of the operator.

    I just learned more information about opals in 20 minutes, than I had in the previous 2 years in the industry. 90% of more of the opals on the net are treated welo. Australia is still and likely always will be the source of the best opal on our planet.

    This would have been fascinating if the guy behind the camera hadn't been in a K hole. Geez, dude, buy a tripod.

    I've been cutting this material for 10 years it does not have to be treated and I have never bought any rough that was treated nor have I ever treated any of my opals and some of my Opals have not touched water and over seven years and are fine

      Do you have any recommendations for setting these opals? I want to have a really nice ethiopean opal necklace made with about seven large opals in gold, but I'm scared to invest all that money in something that might not last, or get damaged or lose its vibrancy.

    Honor the Speaker and remove the video. Recreate it with still shots. He gave permission to film it your way, right.

    I want to see the video, that's being recorded from the camera on the tripod, that keeps gong in and out of frame. The close up is cringe don't do that to the speaker. If it wasn't for the good info I would have stopped watching.
