Gemstone: Opal - 20.31 Cts.
Ethiopia

Weighing in at 20.31 carats, this broad pear shaped cabochon features intense color flashes and an excellent polish. The "cab" features a low dome and rounded girdle. This Ethiopian Opal lights up with a pin fire pattern with strong pink, green, orange, red, purple, blue and yellow play-of-color. The rich coloration is muted in the middle as the crystals are not as close together; but, otherwise, this outstanding gemstone is in excellent condition. The stone displays a clear body color making it a crystal Opal with a 360-degree polish. This is one outstanding Opal gemstone.
