1.23 Ct. Cabochon White Opal from Australia

This beautiful translucent 1.23 carat oval shape multi color opal from Australia offers an exceptional balance of play of color and wearable size, and it stands apart from many market alternatives. This is a White Opal with dimensions of 9.79 x 7.94 x 2.60 mm, cabochon cut, clarity grade very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, medium light color intensity, excellent polish, and no enhancement. Compared with common doublets and triplets, which mask body tone and rely on backing to boost appearance, this solid Australian White Opal shows genuine internal fire and natural translucency that cannot be replicated by assembled stones. Compared with Ethiopian hydrophane opals, which can change appearance with moisture and often require careful handling, this Australian gem offers more predictable stability for everyday wear. Against synthetic or lab created opals, the natural formation of this stone yields unique, irregular color patches of green and red that shift with movement, giving a personality to jewelry that mass produced alternatives cannot match.

From a value and design perspective, this opal from The Natural Gemstone Company represents a superior choice for customers seeking authenticity and aesthetic versatility. The 1.23 carat weight and oval shape make it ideal for classic solitaire rings, elegant pendants, and bespoke settings where the cabochon dome highlights play of color. The medium light body color translates into a soft, luminous backdrop that complements warm and cool metal choices, and the excellent polish enhances light return and surface clarity. The very slightly included clarity grade means the stone reads clean to the eye, preserving visual impact while remaining naturally formed. Because there is no enhancement, you receive an untreated gem that retains its long term value better than many coated or filled stones on the market. If you are comparing options, consider that a natural Australian White Opal of this profile combines rarity, enduring appeal, and practical size, all backed by the sourcing and expertise of The Natural Gemstone Company.
