5.00 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Cabochon Opal Pair from Australia

If you are searching for a truly exceptional pair of gemstones to end your quest for the perfect engagement ring, or if you are a collector looking for a rare and museum worthy Black Opal pair, these stones deliver exactly what you want. Many clients come to us wanting a balance of strong visual presence, reliable quality, and natural origin, and these opals meet each demand with confidence. The pair weighs 2.55 carats and 2.45 carats respectively, they are oval shaped multi color opals measuring 10.72 x 8.47 x 4.14 mm and 10.77 x 8.47 x 4.04 mm, they are cabochon cut, and they exhibit an intense color intensity that flashes brilliant greens and blues across a dark body. Evaluated at eye level, their clarity grade is eye clean, and they show an excellent polish, with no enhancement recorded. Their origin is Australia, and as Black Opals they possess the depth and contrast collectors seek, making them ideal for a signature engagement piece or a standout addition to a high end collection.

For a couple planning an engagement ring, this matched pair brings a rare coherence of color and size that is difficult to replicate from separate stones. The oval shape and cabochon cut sit beautifully in bezel or prong settings, allowing the play of color to be viewed from multiple angles, and the similar dimensions ensure symmetry if you choose a paired design such as side stones or mirror set earrings. For collectors, the intense color intensity and natural, untreated state of these Black Opals underscore their investment value, because untreated Australian opals with eye clean clarity and excellent polish remain highly sought after. At The Natural Gemstone Company we select and present stones with the future setting and wear in mind, and these opals have the presence to become a family heirloom. The substantial face up size gives a dramatic visual field for the opal play of color, and the dark body tone associated with Black Opal boosts contrast so that flashes of green and blue read as vivid and electric even in softer lighting.

Understanding gemstone performance and care is essential, and we are here to make the transition from purchase to daily wear uncomplicated. Black Opal is treasured for its spectacular play of color, and with the right setting it will keep that brilliance over generations. Because these stones are cabochon cut and have an excellent polish, they are securely held and show color across the entire surface area, which means a setting that protects the girdle and prevents knocks will keep them looking fresh while still showing maximum color. We can advise on ring designs that cradle the opals for protection without hiding the face up area, and we can recommend complementary metals and accent stones that heighten the oceanic greens and blues, or allow the dark body tone to remain the star. Our gem specialists can also help arrange a custom mounting so that the pair remains matched and balanced on the hand, or a presentation case that highlights them for display if you are adding them to a collection.

Choosing these Black Opals from The Natural Gemstone Company means selecting a pair that answers your needs for rarity, beauty, and authenticity, and it ends the search for a stone that both delights the eye and satisfies the standards of discerning buyers. We guarantee transparent information about origin and treatment status, and these stones are offered as natural, untreated Australian Black Opals, eye clean at normal viewing distance, with no enhancement. If you would like additional photographs showing the opals under different lighting, detailed measurements, or guidance on design and mounting, we will provide personalized assistance to ensure you are completely confident in your choice. Let us help you turn this matched pair into the ring, the jewelry piece, or the collection highlight that finishes your search and becomes a treasured part of your story.
