1.22 Ct. Cabochon Crystal/Jelly Opal from Australia

Introducing an extraordinary gemstone that captivates the eye and enchants the soul: a 1.22 carat oval multi-color opal, crafted by nature into a unique masterpiece that enhances any collection with its captivating brilliance. Measured at 10.02 x 8.02 x 2.71 mm, this remarkable opal originates from the esteemed mines of Australia, celebrated for yielding some of the highest quality gemstones in the world. What sets this opal apart from more common gemstones is its mesmerizing interplay of colors and its unique optical characteristics. Unlike the single-hue shine of sapphires or emeralds, this opal is characterized by its semi-transparent crystal-jelly nature, allowing light to dance across its surface and display an array of vivid colors.

The cabochon cut of the gemstone brings forth a soft yet radiant shine by enhancing its natural play-of-color, a quality highly valued in opals. The subtly rounded, polished surface maximizes the stone's light performance, making every viewing angle an exquisite experience. Its intense color intensity captivates, revealing an ever-shifting palette of hues ranging from fiery reds and oranges to tranquil blues and greens, qualities that are quite rare and much sought after by discerning collectors. Graded as very slightly included at eye level, the clarity of this gem ensures a pristine viewing experience without significant distractions, ensuring that nothing interferes with its natural allure. Each glance unveils a new story, propelled by the opal’s enigmatic blend of color, movement, and light.

The Australian origin offers additional allure, given the country's reputation for producing the world’s finest opals. Collectors and connoisseurs recognize these stones as representations of ancient earth processes, encapsulating mysterious beauty formed over millions of years. They are the jewels of wisdom and history. The multi-color opal’s undeniable rarity and the skillful craftsmanship of its excellent polish make it a practical investment both aesthetically and financially. Its presence in any fine jewelry setting can elevate the entire piece, combining rarity and visual appeal in a way that no other gemstone can achieve. The Natural Gemstone Company proudly presents this exquisite opal as a testament to our dedication to sourcing only the most stunning natural treasures.
