2.93 Ct. Cabochon Boulder Opal from Australia

One beautiful opaque 2.93 carat pear shape multi color opal welcomes you with a presence that is both commanding and intimately personal, a gemstone that feels like a secret you carry close to your heart. Weighing 2.93 carats, this opal sits in a rare sweet spot where size meets wearable elegance, giving it a visual scale that reads as luxury without ever feeling cumbersome. Measured at 13.52 x 9.24 x 4.10 mm, the dimensions confirm a generous surface for play of color, while the 2.93 carat weight amplifies its rarity, because opals of this heft and depth of color do not appear often in the market. The pear shape lends itself to both classical and contemporary settings, its tapered silhouette drawing the eye and elongating the line of a finger or the graceful fall of a pendant. In every glance and every angle the weight is a promise, a promise that this is a gemstone built to be cherished, an anchor for memories and a celebration of moments you will treasure forever.

This is a Boulder Opal from Australia, a gem rooted in the dramatic landscapes where ironstone and precious opal meet, a fusion that creates patterns and flashes you will not find easily elsewhere. Cut as a cabochon, the stone carries a smooth, domed surface that intensifies the multi color flashes, allowing green, blue, and flashes of fire to shimmer with intense color intensity against the darker matrix. The excellent polish elevates those colors, creating reflections that seem to move with your heartbeat, and the opal has been fashioned as a doublet, an enhancement that layers the opal against a supportive backing to enhance color and stability. We disclose the doublet enhancement openly, because transparency is part of the trust you invest in a jewel, and because a carefully made doublet can unlock dramatic color with improved durability for everyday wear. The combination of boulder character, Australian origin, cabochon artistry, and the thoughtful doublet construction results in a gem that gives you exceptional visual impact and practical wearability.

Think of the emotional resonance that a 2.93 carat opal can hold, a weight that carries stories and intends to become part of your narrative. Gifted at a turning point, it becomes the symbol of a promise, a tangible marker of joy, a piece to be photographed and then rediscovered years later as it continues to catch light and memory alike. The weight gives it substance when worn, a satisfying presence that reminds the wearer of the occasion it commemorates, a weight that tells the world this is not merely costume, but a considered choice. For those seeking to design a bespoke ring or an heirloom pendant, the almost three carats of this pear shaped boulder opal allow for settings that embrace the stone without overwhelming it, settings that can be simple and elegant, or bold and romantic. Imagine the stone cradled in your favorite metal, the polished dome playing across the curves of a custom mount, the 13.52 by 9.24 millimeter face becoming a miniature canvas of green and blue, warmed by the brown ironstone matrix, a gem that creates a memory every time it catches the light.
