David,

    The opal is white based, not translucent in color. 

    Mostly green, little blue with a few red flashes. 

    I do agree though that I am probably paying for their time to
    "match" my opal, that is something I did not think of when I figured
    in the price of $40.00. 

    I also agree that I could probably just purchase 2 matching pairs
    from Stuller or somewhere for probably equal or less...but then it
    wouldn't be the customers stone that she purchased on a trip
    somewhere, you know, that sentimentality that we all deal with... 

    so thank you for your input once again. 

    Nice to know big brother / sister is watching out for all of us 

Happy holidays to all!
Laurie
