The allure of opals has fascinated gem enthusiasts and collectors for centuries, thanks to their unique play of colors and mysterious beauty. Here at The Natural Gemstone Company, we take pride in offering our discerning clientele some of the finest and most exquisite gemstones available. Among these exceptional offerings, we present a truly remarkable oval-shaped white opal weighing an impressive 11.63 carats. This opal is not just significant in size, but it also holds within it a stunning combination of beauty, rarity, and history, making it a coveted piece for any gemstone connoisseur.
The gemstone’s dimensions are 22.64 x 15.54 x 4.37 mm, a substantial size that adds to its visual impact and value. Considering that opals come in varying sizes and qualities, an opal of this size is exceptionally rare. The weight of a gemstone is one of the key determinants of its value, and with opals, a weight of over 10 carats significantly enhances its desirability and market value. This particular opal’s weight magnifies its presence and makes it a standout piece worthy of admiration, fitting splendidly into any high-end jewelry collection or as a unique standalone investment.
The clarity and cut of this opal also contribute to its esteemed status. It is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, which means it remains mostly free of visible imperfections to the naked eye, thus allowing its intrinsic natural beauty to shine through unblemished. Additionally, the cabochon cut of this opal betrays its traditional allure, creating a smooth, rounded dome that maximizes the display of its ethereal colors and enhances the gemstone’s overall finish. The excellent polish further underscores the skill and craftsmanship involved in its preparation, presenting a flawless surface that elegantly reflects light and enhances its near-colorless, serene hues.
In terms of origin, this opal hails from Australia, a region renowned for producing some of the world’s most superior opals in terms of quality and beauty. Australian white opals, in particular, are celebrated for their enchanting transparency and subdued play of colors that whisper of an elegance reserved for the initiated. The fact that this opal is Australian not only adds to its prestige but also assures potential buyers of its superior quality by virtue of its provenance. At The Natural Gemstone Company, our commitment to sourcing only the finest naturally occurring gems ensures that each piece, such as this magnificent 11.63-carat white opal, is an embodiment of integrity, trust, and peerless quality.
