Subject: Re: Sealing an opal?


Do not use silicate it will pull the moisture out of the opal. Put the opal in a small zip lock and add a small amount of distilled water. Zip it closed then put it into a small clear jar and seal the jar as best you can. Put the jar where you can see it but keep it out of the sun. This way you will be able to keep watch on the amount of moisture. If you notice some water loss or water color change redo everything. If you have other questions email me. Robert
