2.26 Ct. Cabochon White Opal from Australia

This beautiful semi transparent White Opal from Australia weighs 2.26 carat, and presents an elegant oval shape measuring 10.34 by 8.32 by 4.11 mm, it is fashioned as a classic cabochon cut that enhances the rich, multi color play of color across the surface, the stone shows a medium intense color intensity with flashes of green, blue, and warm orange tones visible as you move the gem, clarity is graded very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, and the surface shows an excellent polish that gives a smooth, lustrous finish, the opal is untreated, no enhancement, and its semi transparent body allows internal color to float beneath the surface for a soft, ethereal appearance.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we value stones that combine beauty and integrity, this White Opal offers a rare balance of subtle body tone and lively play of color, the 2.26 carat weight and comfortable proportions make it ideal for a center stone in a delicate ring, a pendant that showcases its oval silhouette, or a refined pair of asymmetric earrings, when set with a warm metal such as 14 karat or 18 karat yellow gold, the opal’s warm flashes pop beautifully, while white gold or platinum settings emphasize its icy white body and cooler flashes, care is simple, avoid harsh chemicals and rapid temperature changes, clean gently with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoid ultrasonic cleaners, and remove the piece before strenuous activity to protect the cabochon surface, this piece is perfect for collectors and designers who appreciate natural Australian origin, no enhancement, and expert cutting, if you prefer I can provide guidance on ideal mounting options and custom settings to show off the opal’s best face, feel free to contact The Natural Gemstone Company for more photos, viewing options, or custom design consultation.
