A singular expression of elemental beauty, this Black Opal offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a study in refined taste. We present an opaque, multi color opal weighing 1.92 carat, fashioned into a graceful fancy shape with tablet cut proportions that measure 8.34 x 7.41 x 3.55 mm, a sublime balance of presence and poise. The tablet cut gives a broad, luminous surface that maximizes the stone face up, while the intense color intensity and excellent polish present a living canvas of color from every angle. Sourced from Australia, this opal is enhanced as a doublet, a traditional and respected setting technique that places a dark backing beneath the precious opal layer to heighten depth, drama and contrast. The result is an immediate sense of luxury that is both wearable and collectible.
Viewed closely, the play of color is the jewel in the crown, a spectacular interplay of oceanic greens and deep cerulean blues that dance with hints of aqua and subtle flashes of warmer tones as light travels across the surface. The tablet cut and superior polish give the effect of liquid color frozen in time, a luminous mosaic that shifts with every tilt of the hand. Because this is an opaque Black Opal with concentrated color fields, it reads boldly on the finger or in a pendant, delivering a statement of sophisticated restraint. The compact dimensions and neat form transform the stone into the ideal center for a bespoke commission, an heirloom ring or an elegant pendant, each setting made to celebrate its intense spectral display.
Inclusions within this opal are not flaws but signatures, each internal feature a provenance mark that tells the story of its formation, and that adds to its character in ways that mass produced gems cannot replicate. You will notice subtle layering and fine matrix traces at the stone edge, a natural vestige of the silica gel and host rock from which the opal was formed, and in the case of a doublet the dark backing becomes part of the composition that amplifies the play of color. Fine color banding and delicate veining can appear as painterly strokes, unique to this specimen, while tiny natural mineral fragments and slight textural variations give depth and dimensionality to the color bar. These inclusions are the stone fingerprint, proof of natural origin and geological history, enhancing desirability for collectors who prize character, authenticity and stones that wear a story within their depths.
To own this Black Opal from The Natural Gemstone Company is to claim a small masterpiece, a gem that confers distinction and immediate recognition of discerning taste. With its 1.92 carat weight, tablet profile and intense color saturation, it is a gem that rewards custom design, and it invites a setting that protects its layered construction while showcasing its luminous surface. Our team can advise on the most flattering mountings that honor the opal doublet construction, and on care guidelines to preserve polish and vibrancy for generations. For the connoisseur seeking the rare combination of Australian origin, vivid color, and natural inclusions that read as pedigree, this opal stands as an object of desire, an emblem of achievement and elegant refinement.
