1.97 Ct. Cabochon Crystal/Jelly Opal from Ethiopia

Hold this little moon in your palm and watch the world of color breathe beneath its skin, a semi transparent oval of fire and hush that seems to hold a hush of dawn, a sigh of sea glass, a memory of rain. This is a 1.97 carat Crystal Jelly Opal from Ethiopia, lovingly fashioned into an oval cabochon, 9.65 x 8.80 x 4.75 mm, a multi color opal with a medium intense play of color that shimmers when you tilt it toward the light. The clarity is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which gives the gem a hint of character rather than distraction, and the excellent polish lets the light flow across the dome like a whisper. There is no enhancement, this opal is entirely natural, a jewel of origin and honesty that comes to you from the heart of Ethiopia, offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, a piece that carries both provenance and poetry.

Imagine this opal set into a simple halo, cradled in warm gold, or mounted as the quiet centre of a bespoke engagement ring, its soft cabochon silhouette catching fingertips and vows alike, its shifting greens and blues promising new mornings. I see it paired with delicate diamonds that echo starlight, or wrapped in a bezel for everyday tenderness, enduring yet intimate. For lovers of natural gems, the Crystal Jelly Opal is a romantic companion, semi transparent and alive with color, a stone that changes with mood and light, reflecting the way two people grow together. As your guide and gemstone steward I recommend gentle care, avoiding sudden temperature shocks and harsh chemicals, and occasional polishing to maintain that excellent finish. If you desire further images, measurements, or a custom setting suggestion, I will be honored to assist you, because at The Natural Gemstone Company we believe every jewel should tell a story, and this Ethiopian opal hums with a story you can wear.
