FINE GEMSTONE: OPAL - 10.28 CT.
Welo, Ethiopia


The first thing you will notice when looking at this spectacular Opal is its "play of color." It is a broad flash Opal displaying brilliant colors of red, gold, green, blue and purple. The colors dance across, and through, the light grey body of the stone as if suspended in air. Ethiopian Opal's brilliant color flashes rivals top grade Opals from anywhere in the world - as evidenced by this bright and lively 10.28 carat free-form cabochon. This fine gemstone is well cut, has a moderate high dome, excellent polish and is in excellent condition.
Measurements: 20.8 x 15.64mm, 10.28 cts.
Offered at no reserve.
