5.17 Ct. Black Opal from Australia

Introducing the exquisite 5.17 carat trillion shape multi color opal, a gemstone that signifies both vibrancy and rarity, sourced directly from the esteemed mines of Australia. The opal, a gem revered across various cultures for its unique play-of-color and iridescence, holds a special place in the heart of any connoisseur of fine jewelry. This particular opal promises to be a standout piece, showcasing a truly remarkable color palette that can enhance any setting, be it a timeless necklace pendant or an elegant ring. The Natural Gemstone Company prides itself on providing only the finest exemplars, and this opal exemplifies that commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

When evaluating this remarkable opal, one is immediately drawn to its vibrant and intense color intensity—a striking feature of the gemstone that ensures its presence is felt even from a distance. This intensity is not just a casual observation; it aligns perfectly with the most valued attributes in opals, providing a vivid and captivating experience. The unique multi-color aspect of this opal means it contains an amalgamation of hues ranging from radiant blues, sunny yellows, fiery reds, to verdant greens, each flashing across its surface with even the subtlest movement. It is this extraordinary color play, heightened by its intense saturation, that enables the opal to stand distinctly apart from other gemstones.

Crafted with expert precision, the opal has been fashioned into a trillion shape with dimensions measuring 15.05 x 14.99 x 4.10 mm. This particular faceting style, known as a tablet cut, enhances the gemstone’s inherent play-of-color and allows it to exhibit its full spectrum of brilliance. The tablet cut also accommodates the intrinsic properties of the opal, maximizing the effect of light and color with each angle and movement. The craftsmanship undertaken for this faceting involves meticulous attention to detail to ensure that each angle perfectly complements the stone’s natural beauty. The excellent polish bestowed upon the opal ensures a smooth, lustrous finish, augmenting its optical effects and further enhancing its visual appeal.

The opal’s clarity grade is very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, meaning any inclusions are either barely noticeable or non-existent to the unaided eye. This clarity level is particularly impressive for an opal of this size, considering the challenges inherent in sourcing and cutting large specimens. Such clarity ensures that the multidimensional appearance of the gem remains unobstructed and contributes to its overall aesthetic balance. Its sophisticated craftsmanship and the natural vibrance of its hues create an enchanting spectacle that is poised to become the centerpiece of exquisite jewelry designs. Whether set in an elaborate engagement ring, brooch, or standalone piece, this opal proffers a blend of elegance and flair that is hard to surpass.

The Natural Gemstone Company is dedicated to not only sourcing gemstones with superior attributes but also to delivering pieces that encapsulate the quintessence of rare mineral beauty. This multi color opal represents the alignment of nature's wonder and human craftsmanship, making it an ideal selection for the discerning jewelry aficionado seeking to add a splash of unparalleled essence to their collection. With the blend of skillful faceting, robust color intensity, and palpable allure, this opal remains not just a gem but a timeless piece of art that speaks volumes about the sophistication it beholds.
