3.99 Ct. Cabochon White Opal from Ethiopia

There is a quiet poem held within this pear shaped gem, a soft exhale of color that seems to come from the dawn itself. This White Opal of 3.99 carats rests like a dewdrop sculpted by the sun, its cabochon cut whispering gentle curves that catch breath and light. Hues of green and pale fire float across a milk white sea, a multicolor play that appears and dissolves as if the stone remembers stars. At 15.64 by 9.29 by 4.81 millimeters it wears its size with grace, an elegant presence that feels intimate on a finger or pendant, and its opaque body gives the color flashes a tender, mysterious depth. Originating from Ethiopia, this opal has been heat treated to reveal its inner glow, a subtle enhancement that lets those shifting greens and soft flashes speak clearly without losing the gem s natural soul.

As a gemstone specialist with The Natural Gemstone Company I see this opal as both a keepsake and a conversation, a piece that holds memory and possibility. Its clarity is very slightly included evaluated at eye level, a gentle character mark that makes the stone feel lived in and beloved rather than clinical. The color intensity is medium, offering a balanced palette that works beautifully with warm gold or cool silver, and the excellent polish gives a satin mirror that invites touch. The pear shape and cabochon finish make it an ideal center for a romantic setting, particularly for someone who cherishes subtlety and depth. If you seek a ring or pendant that reads like a secret love note, this Ethiopian White Opal will answer in soft flashes of green and pale fire. I am here to help with setting suggestions, custom mounting ideas, and any questions about care and provenance, and I would be honored to guide you through making this luminous stone part of your story.
