As a representative of The Natural Gemstone Company, I am pleased to present a truly rare treasure, one beautiful opaque 2.51 carat oval shape multi color opal that embodies elegance and singularity. This Black Opal is a statement of exclusivity, originating from the famed fields of Australia, and it arrives to the connoisseur as a piece that will not be replicated on demand. The gem measures 11.74 x 9.66 x 3.59 mm, and its tablet cut creates a broad, captivating surface that showcases color with authority. The clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, a mark that confirms authenticity while preserving the opal integrity and the visual drama of its surface. There is no enhancement, and the polish is excellent, so what you see is unaltered natural brilliance, a condition that assures the collector of a genuine and investment worthy specimen. Because these Black Opals of this quality and size appear only rarely, owning this gem confers membership in an elite group of patrons who appreciate the scarcity of naturally vibrant stones and the quiet prestige that comes from selecting a gem of outstanding origin and condition.
What makes this piece extraordinary is the intensity and range of its color, attributes that will ensure the stone stands out in any jewelry setting. The opal exhibits intense color intensity, with a dynamic palette that shifts from deep electric blues to verdant greens and fiery flashes of red and orange as the stone moves, a performance that seems to animate the metalwork around it. The tablet cut emphasizes broad flashes of color rather than narrow pinpoints, delivering a theatrical display that commands attention whether set in a classic solitaire ring, a bespoke pendant, or a refined pair of earrings. Against warm gold, the dark body of this Black Opal offers high contrast that magnifies color saturation, while against white metal the lively chromatic play reads as contemporary and striking. The very slightly included clarity at eye level does not diminish the visual impact, instead it serves as a hallmark of natural origin and character, while the excellent polish ensures smooth transitions of light across the surface, allowing each color to breathe and pulse with life.
To own this Black Opal from The Natural Gemstone Company is to claim a piece of geological artistry and a symbol of distinction, available in truly limited measure. Given its provenance, cut, and unenhanced state, this opal is suited to a collector who seeks both aesthetic drama and provenance, and it will become the centerpiece of a custom commission, heirloom creation, or an intimate display of taste. We recommend settings that allow for movement and light exposure, so the gem can reveal its full specter of color, and we suggest consulting with our design specialists to determine the ideal metal, setting height, and mounting style that will protect the stone while maximizing its visual presence. For care, store away from prolonged exposure to direct heat and avoid sharp impacts, clean gently with a soft cloth and mild water, and consult us for specialist services if the piece requires re mounting or professional cleaning. If you desire to view this rare Black Opal in person, discuss certification details, or begin a bespoke design process, contact The Natural Gemstone Company and allow us to introduce you to a level of rarity that is reserved for discerning collectors and patrons who appreciate the exceptional.
