Solid ones are hard to come by (and expensive), thus the popularity of doublets and triplets such as the last one, where slices of opal are glued to a black backing to create the illusion of a black opal.

Its labradorescence comes from inclusions of other minerals. Upon first glance, labradorite can be an unimpressive murky brown, but when light hits it the right way, its display of color will amaze you.

The technique involves depositing a very thin layer of metallic atoms on the lower surface of the stone.
