This listing describes one beautiful translucent 0.93 carat oval shape multi color opal, with precise dimensions of 8.31 x 5.78 x 2.82 mm, presented in a classic cabochon cut to maximize play of color and surface brilliance. Classified as a Semi-Black Opal, this gem displays an intense color intensity, with vivid flashes of green and blue against a subtle darker body tone which enhances contrast and perceived depth. The clarity is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, indicating minimal internal characteristics that do not detract from the overall visual impact, while the polish is excellent, providing a smooth reflective surface that highlights the opal s natural fire. There has been no enhancement to this stone, confirming that the optical effects and body tone are wholly natural, and the origin is Australia, a region internationally recognized for producing high quality opal material.
For the educated buyer, this opal represents both aesthetic and geological value, combining a desirable semi black body tone with intense play of color and natural provenance from Australia. The cabochon dome is well proportioned at the given dimensions, making the gem suitable for a range of jewelry applications from rings to pendants, where the durable cut and excellent polish will stand up to everyday viewing while preserving the characteristic opal luster. The very slightly included clarity grade means the stone will photograph and display with minimal distraction, while the absence of treatments preserves long term stability and market desirability. At The Natural Gemstone Company we emphasize transparent grading and verified origin, which supports resale and collection value for buyers who prioritize natural, unenhanced material. Recommended care includes gentle cleaning with mild soap and water, avoiding abrupt temperature change and harsh chemicals, to maintain the opal s surface and play of color. This piece is an attractive option for collectors and discerning buyers seeking a naturally striking semi black opal with reliable documentation and aesthetic presence.
