0.65 Ct. Cabochon Crystal/Jelly Opal from Australia

If you are searching for the perfect stone to seal a promise, to create a singular engagement ring, or to add a rare and beautiful specimen to a curated collection, this round crystal jelly opal from The Natural Gemstone Company answers that search with quiet confidence. This piece is a semi transparent, multi color opal weighing 0.65 carat, presented in a classic cabochon cut that measures 6.99 by 6.99 by 2.18 millimeters. Originating from Australia, and offered with full disclosure of no enhancement, this opal brings a natural and honest provenance that discerning buyers value. The Crystal or Jelly Opal type gives this gem a luminous depth, allowing play of color to float within its body rather than solely on the surface, a quality that enchants when the light shifts. For customers seeking an engagement ring that is subtly unconventional, or a collector who prioritizes natural, unenhanced specimens, this opal resolves those needs by combining attractive size and weight with a delicate transparency that reads as elegant and refined in ring, pendant, or stud settings.

Visually this opal performs with a gentle yet vivid display. Its medium light color intensity produces harmonious flashes of green and blue with hints of warmer tones when viewed at different angles, a dance that is amplified by the cabochon dome and the excellent polish on the surface. The clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means any internal features are minimal and do not distract from the gem's overall appearance. The semi transparent body lets the play of color show with a soft, almost ethereal quality, making the stone feel alive and changing under everyday light. For an engagement ring where the wearer wants beauty with subtlety, or for a collector who appreciates the nuanced interplay of clarity and color, this opal offers an ideal balance. Its dimensions make it comfortable to set as a single center stone or to pair with small accent stones without overpowering a design.

For practical use and for long term enjoyment, this opal invites thoughtful setting and care. Because it is a cabochon cut with a smooth dome, it suits bezel settings that protect the edges and help prevent inadvertent knocks, or it can be mounted in a crafted halo to emphasize its play of color while providing structural support. Warmer metals like yellow gold will accentuate the warmer flashes, while white metals will make the cooler greens and blues appear crisper, and rose gold will harmonize with the softer tones. Opal is more delicate than many faceted gems, so we recommend avoiding ultrasonic cleaners and steam, and limiting exposure to harsh chemicals and sudden extremes of temperature. Storing the opal in a slightly humid environment or with a damp cloth in a sealed container can help prevent dehydration over long periods, and regular gentle cleaning with a soft cloth will preserve its polish. These practical steps will ensure that this Australian crystal jelly opal remains a wearable treasure for many years.
