Subject: Opals to sell

Message Body:

Hi, my parents were given about 50 opals by a miner 50 years ago. They would like to sell them but don’t know where to begin. Our local jewellers can’t offer a great deal of assistance. We live in Sydney. Could you give us a place to start please?

Kind regards,

Deb Phipps

BODY TONE POSTERS

The opal association printed out some body tone posters but we have just opened the box and found the printing colour is to light-the printer has agreed to re print them so we can give these out for free at opal shows.

Yours sincerely
