The exquisite 2.83 carat oval shape orange opal from The Natural Gemstone Company, with dimensions measuring a precise 11.01 x 9.01 x 5.12 mm, is a masterful representation of both nature's beauty and expert craftsmanship. This semi-transparent opal is distinguished by its cabochon cut, a technique renowned for enhancing the gem's natural luster and color play. The smooth, rounded surface refracts light an appeal that true connoisseurs will recognize speaks to the commitment to quality and attention to detail that our company affords every piece.
Originating from the rich deposits of Mexico, this opal is classified as a Fire Jelly Opal, a type often celebrated for its vivid and vibrant color displays. The intensely fiery orange hue is a visual feast comparable to a sunset captured within stone, offering an intense color intensity that stands out even among rare gems. The opal’s surface has been polished to an excellent standard, ensuring a mirror-like finish that further amplifies the inherent beauty and depth of color within the stone.
One noteworthy attribute of this opal is its clarity, graded as eye clean when evaluated at eye level. This means the gemstone is free from visible inclusions, setting it apart in its purity and crystalline structure. For those who understand the allure of inclusions, even in eye clean stones, these internal characteristics serve as nature’s unique identifier, conferring to the opal a character and distinctiveness akin to a fingerprint. They testify to a history forged deep within the earth, hinting at the geological processes that have shaped each stone uniquely and over millions of years.
The cabochon cut of this opal is exemplary in revealing the depth and dynamism of its spectral play of light. Opting for a cabochon or non-faceted cut allows for the enhancement of the natural shimmer preference and the opalescence, which is iconic of Fire Jelly Opals. Such craftsmanship mitigates the need for artificial enhancement, enabling the natural beauty of the gem to intrigue and captivate the viewer. It underscores the promise of authenticity and excellence that The Natural Gemstone Company diligently upholds throughout its product range.
This gemstone presents an opportunity for discerning buyers to add a truly remarkable piece to their collection. Not just a testimony to extraordinary natural phenomena, it remains a tribute to the artisan skills of expert gem cutters who worked tirelessly to accentuate its inherent qualities. For aficionados and collectors alike, the orange opal stands as both a testiment and witness to The Natural Gemstone Company's dedication to precision, authenticity, and the unparalleled allure that only the highest standard in gemstones can offer.
