5.32 Ct. White Opal from Australia

One exquisite White Opal offered by The Natural Gemstone Company presents a rare balance of size, color and character, perfect for collectors and jewelry designers seeking a distinctive centerpiece. This single translucent opal weighs 5.32 carats, and is cut into a refined oval shape that measures 17.59 x 12.91 x 3.83 mm, creating a presence that reads as both substantial and elegantly wearable. The gem displays a tablet cut which gives a low profile that is ideal for rings and pendants where a sleek silhouette is desired, while the excellent polish maximizes surface brilliance and tactile quality. Originating from Australia, a source renowned for producing world class opals, this specimen requires no enhancement, offered to you in its natural state, preserving the authentic beauty and character that only a natural White Opal can convey.

Visually this opal is a study in subtlety and color dynamics, categorized as multi color with a medium intense color intensity that delivers a lively but never overwhelming play of color. Depending on the angle of view and lighting, you will notice a soft interplay of blues and greens as principal tones, with occasional flashes of warmer hues that emerge as the light shifts, creating an ethereal inner fire. The translucency allows light to penetrate and interact with the internal structure, producing a depth that fools the eye into seeing color suspended within a luminous field. The tablet cut complements this quality by offering a broad, gently domed surface area that showcases the opal s color patches across a wide plane, making the movement of color graceful and continuous. Small included characteristics are present, consistent with the clarity grade of included as evaluated at eye level, and these inclusions tell the story of a natural formation process, adding to the gem s individuality rather than detracting from its appeal.

From a gemological and practical perspective this White Opal combines important selling points and handling guidance that are useful when making a selection or planning a setting. The exact measurements of 17.59 x 12.91 x 3.83 mm paired with a 5.32 carat weight make it large enough to be a showpiece while maintaining a comfortable profile for everyday wear when set responsibly. The clarity grade of included, observed at eye level, is typical for natural opals and is visible upon close inspection, but it does not impede the overall beauty, largely because the opal s pleasing medium intense color and excellent polish draw attention to its luminous play of color. No enhancement has been applied, which means color and clarity are wholly natural and stable as mined from Australia. For mounting, the tablet cut and modest thickness recommend protective settings such as bezels or low prongs that shield the edges and surface, especially since opals are more susceptible to impact and rapid temperature changes than harder gemstones. Cleaning is best achieved with gentle care, using a soft cloth and a mild soap solution with lukewarm water, avoiding ultrasonic cleaners, steam, harsh chemicals and prolonged soaking. When designing jewelry, consider pairing this White Opal with white metals to emphasize its cool tones, or with yellow metals to warm the overall presentation, keeping in mind that a protective setting and periodic inspection will prolong the life and appearance of the stone.
