    Default A gemologist needed to test Opal doublet

    Hi everyone,
    I recently bought an Opal doublet but it looks quite suspicious and I'd like to have it tested by an expert.
    Anyone possibly knows a person/company I could send this to?

    Thank you in advance!

    Some one on the forum may be able to have a look, to send it out to a professional would most likely cost more than the doublet is worth
    what are you concerns can post a picture

    As Bob has said, an expert opinion could cost more than the stone itself.
    Opal doublets are not that expensive, so if you don't like to be uncertain, buy a new one from a reputable dealer, such as AE Ward. Dennis.
