3.01 Ct. Cabochon White Opal from Australia

When you are searching for a gemstone that will end the hunt for the perfect engagement ring, a unique statement piece, or a treasured addition to a collector portfolio, you want something that speaks to both the eye and the heart. This beautiful White Opal offered by The Natural Gemstone Company answers that need directly. It combines classic opal character with a multi color play that moves with each tilt and beam of light, giving you an experience that is intimate and unmistakable. For someone who values natural beauty, ethical sourcing, and the kind of individuality that no two stones can match, this opal is an immediate solution. It is versatile enough to become the central focus of a bespoke engagement ring, elegant enough to grace a pendant, and collectible enough to stand on its own in a cabinet of rare finds.

Here are the facts that matter to a discerning buyer, stated plainly and honestly. This is one White Opal, fully natural, opaque in body, weighing 3.01 carat, shaped into a pleasing oval, and cut as a smooth cabochon to maximize its play of color. Its exact dimensions are 12.90 by 9.57 by 5.22 mm, a profile that reads well in both ring and pendant settings, and carries a comfortable presence on the hand or close to the heart. The color intensity reads as medium intense, allowing lively flashes of green, blue, and occasional rosy red tones to show against its soft white base. The polish has been graded excellent, so the surface is glossy and free from distracting abrasions, and importantly, there has been no enhancement applied to this stone. The origin is Australia, a source that collectors respect for producing classic, high quality white opals.

If the need is an engagement ring that looks like no other, picture this opal set into a low bezel for daily wear, or into a delicate prong setting surrounded by fine accent diamonds to emphasize the play of color without overpowering it. The cabochon cut maximizes the internal fire of the stone while preserving a smooth, tactile dome that is comfortable for everyday wear. For collectors and connoisseurs, the subtle yet vivid patches of green and blue that move across the opal will reward close viewing and careful study. Jewelry designers will appreciate how the 12.90 by 9.57 by 5.22 mm dimensions balance presence with wearability, and how the medium intense color makes the piece adaptable to both warm and cool metal choices. The white base of this opal lends it a purity that allows multi color flashes to read clearly, offering an elegant and slightly ethereal aesthetic.

Caring for this gem is straightforward when you understand its nature. White opal, with its water content and delicate internal structure, benefits from gentle handling and protection from harsh chemicals and extreme heat. Clean with a soft brush or cloth and mild soapy water, avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam, and consider seasonal humidity precautions if you live in an extremely dry climate. When setting this opal, you may prefer bezel mounting or secure prongs that protect the edges of the cabochon. At The Natural Gemstone Company we can advise on setting styles that both protect and highlight the stone, and we can assist with design recommendations to ensure the mount complements the opal without compromising its integrity. We pride ourselves on providing transparent information about every gem, including origin, enhancements or lack thereof, and any notable characteristics, so you can make a confident choice.
