Full rolling patterns! Fully faceted! 1.16ct Black Opal!

OK, ladies and gentlemen, we've got to say, this opal is simply ridiculous. You've got to hold it in your hand to get the full scope of all of the color this piece puts out. The picture and video of this opal don't even come close. And the thing is, this opal isn't picky. It doesn't care what lighting you put it in, it's giving color. Warm lighting? Color. Cool lighting? Color. Bright lighting? Color. Dim lighting? Color. Hold it in a shadow and take a look. You guessed it, color. But not just any color, this opal gives you deep vivid colors. Rich grass greens twist in and out of underlying cobalt blues creating teal, with fiery reds, yellows, and oranges showing vibrantly in the spaces in-between. At some angles you will see gorgeous floral patterns, turn it again, and you will see a touch of harlequin. Turn it again, and you can catch block and chaff patterns in the mix. And its fully translucent, so you get deep seated color combinations. Move it around, walk into different rooms. Go outside. We did. And every color listed we observed personally. This is a fun piece. It has a classic oval cut measuring 9mm x 7mm x 3.9mm and is fully faceted. Sourced from Ethiopia. Smoked.
