Watch the video! Surprising 1.96ct Black Opal!
Is that a black sapphire cabochon? The silky color of this piece might suggest that, but hit this opal with the right lighting and, BOOM! You can see all of the hidden color suspended under its glistening liquid luster. It's like a gemstone ninja! Now you see the color, now you don't! Just like you, this is a serious looking gemstone with a hidden fun side. And just like you, that fun side is awesome. You've got reds, greens, yellows, and even blues tucked away for the right moment to jump out in a beautiful exhibition of glittering fairy fire. And since opals have less density than other gems, your 1.96 carats in weight turn into a whopping 10.9mm x 7.1mm x 4.3mm! That's pretty big! Sourced from Ethiopia. Untreated!
Gems come with a complimentary gem jar for display and protection, size permitting. All treatments are disclosed*, and all weights and sizes are approximate. Listed gemstones are greatly magnified, and minor details that present themselves in the photo may not be visible with the naked eye. There may be slight color differences due to individual monitor settings and capabilities. *Except for topaz. As irradiation is the standard treatment for this gem type, they should be assumed to be as such, unless stated otherwise in the description.
