Uncut Gems producer himself sourced a special rare Opal for the film

The film Uncut Gems revolves around a rare opal that sends the lead character, Howard Ratner on a dangerous journey through New York City's diamond district. Thus the makers of the film were on an intense hunt to finalise the prop to be used as the main centre of attraction. The producer of the film, Sebastian Bear-McClard spoke to a news publishing portal and revealed that they had trouble sourcing a real one and trouble figuring out how to get the art department to build what was in their heads. Thus he gave up on the process and the waiting period and took matters into his own hands. The director took up the responsibility and  ended up taking over the design and execution of the rare opal.
