    I found a few lovely pieces at an estate sale. These are natural stone but unusual stones I'm not familiar with. Could any one identify or point me to a reference I could search? Thank you!

    Not fire opal, I know the stone, but can't remember the name.:banghead: Maybe @stracci knows it.
    Dyed bamboo coral. Nice.

    Thank you! The stone in the ring has a beautiful luminescence and kind of glows in the light. Similar to opal but the lines and opaque quality are throwing me off.

    The lines and colors look very similar but in this stone they glow and change in the light as you move the stone

    Could it be Ammolite?

    That's the one I was looking for, but apparently this is not it.

    It's a pretty ring!
    I think the stone in the ring is lab opal, cut lengthwise.
