Huge! 18.31ct full body flashing Welo Opal

This beautiful collectors opal exhibits a smoky white body that holds the light, creating a glowing effect, with smoldering floral patterned play of color. The delicate color display flows across this opal in waves of pink and orange with florescent green highlights that are suspended under a pearlescent luster that glistens across its smooth cut body. It has remarkable size, measuring 18.5mm x 18mm x 11mm, and a translucent body when held to the light. The pictures are a pale representation of this piece, its light return is much stronger in person. Sourced from Welo, Ethiopia. Unheated.
