Full cover! Full spectrum! 3.02ct Black Opal!
Wow! What an amazing black opal! The photos and video don't even come close to the actual play of color suspended through this opal. In hand this piece exhibits a multi-color multi-pattern full cover explosion of color in both bright and low lighting. The colors ebb and flow in torrents of both rich and vibrant greens, reds, oranges, and yellows with deep cobalt blue and turquoise accents under a glistening liquid luster. You've got elements of floral, block, and harlequin patterns all swirling around each other juxtaposed by a sea of silky silky blackness that enhances these patterns and really making them pop. And since opals have less density than other gemstones, its 3 carat weight creates a substantial 11.7mm x 9mm x 6mm size! Sourced from Ethiopia. Smoked.
