1.43 Ct. Crystal Opal from Australia

Introducing an exquisite and alluring gemstone from The Natural Gemstone Company, a testament to both nature's artistry and our commitment to fine quality gemstones — a captivating 1.43-carat oval shape multi-color opal. This gem, sourced from the opal-rich terrain of Australia, embodies an enchanting spectrum of colors with a dreamy translucence that promises to be a showstopper in any fine jewelry collection.

The defining feature of this opal lies in its tablet cut, a stylish adaptation that enhances its natural allure by amplifying color play and retaining an elegant slender profile. Its dimensions, 11.97 x 7.26 x 2.65 mm, reveal a proportionally balanced stone perfect for crafting into an exquisite piece of jewelry. The oval shape adds a classic and elegant appeal, widely appreciated by jewelers and discerning buyers alike for its ability to maximize the scintillating play-of-color effect opals are renowned for. The gemstone's medium light color intensity is complemented by an excellent polish that results in a luxurious smoothness, allowing the stone to shimmer with an ethereal glow.

The opal's clarity, graded as very slightly included at eye level, contributes to its unique charm. Unlike gemstones where inclusions are considered flaws, in opals, they add depth and character, offering a unique signature analogous to nature's fingerprint. The fine inclusions within this opal create intricate patterns reminiscent of celestial galaxies or the mesmerizing view of shimmering sunlight playing over a tranquil lake, making each opal genuinely one-of-a-kind. These minute inclusions do not detract from the opal's overall aesthetic appeal; instead, they symbolize the natural formation process of opals over geological epochs, serving as a delightful reminder of its authentic origins.

Such hallmarks in an opal qualify it as an excellent selection for collectors and enthusiasts desiring a piece that not only showcases purity and quality but also tells a story of its ancestral earth lineage. Australian opals, like this one, are prized worldwide, known for their outstanding quality and vibrant, diverse color displays. Australia's signature opal mining towns, Coober Pedy and Lightning Ridge, have long supplied the finest opals, and it's from such rich locales that The Natural Gemstone Company proudly sources its products. By securing one of these ethereal gems, you're not only purchasing a remarkable artifact of nature but also reaffirming the conservation and ethical sourcing standards that define the values of The Natural Gemstone Company.

In conclusion, this captivating opal, with its iridescent hues, natural inclusions, and elegant form, truly epitomizes the ephemeral beauty and artistry found in the mineral kingdom. A testament to The Natural Gemstone Company’s dedication to providing gemstones that are as unique as they are beautiful, this multi-color opal has a definite appeal to both seasoned connoisseurs and newly initiated gem lovers.
