Artie Yellowhorse, Navajo - New Mexico, USA 

This is petrified wood that has opalized.  In some cases of opalizing, it turns to "gem grade opal".  In this case, it is "common opal".  The difference is, while common opal may be very colorful, it doesn't glow or shimmer the way gem opal does.  Now that we have that out of the way, this is a very attractive piece.  Add to it the Yellowhorse burst bead setting and you have a unique piece.
