[Jewelry making - Article 00560] - [Orchid] Selling high end opal

    I have a client/friend that has acquired a very fine opal as an
    inheritance. A Gemologist has estimated the value at between 5k and
    6k wholesale per carat. The stone is 13+ carats, oval with beautiful
    fire throughout. Where or how would my client/ friend begin to find a
    buyer for this stone? They are afraid to reset it and wear it,
    considering its high value. They also have a teenage daughter that is
    going to need college tuition sometime soon. Love to hear what
    everyone has to say. I could get more detailed info to anyone that
    has a serious inquiry or suggestion.
