Huge! 20mm high fire Black Opal weighing 8.91 carats!

Don't you dare miss this exquisite opal! Sourced from Welo, Ethiopia, this stunning example has a low to medium cabochon cut and presents premium play of color that glows in a brilliant display of floral fire that erupts in wide blocks of ever changing color. The vibrant flashing of this piece is full cover and non-stop, filling both sides in brilliant reds, yellows and greens with strong showings of cobalt. The play of color is so prominent on this opal, that it even presents strong play of color in low light! And since opals have less density than other gems, your 8.91 carats ends up measuring an incredible 20mm x 12.8mm x 7.8mm! And it's finished with a superb liquid luster that glistens across its entire smooth cut surface!
