Product description

The centerpiece of The Natural Gemstone Company's collection is a remarkable 6.18-carat trillion-shaped blue opal, distinguished by its origin from the rich mines of Australia. This opal classifies as a black opal, one of the most coveted types due to its captivating play of color and rarity. Its dimensions are meticulously proportioned at 20.50 x 16.62 x 3.34 mm, offering an exceptional surface for the dispersion of light, which enhances its vivid color intensity. This opal's inherent translucence allows for an interplay of colors that is both striking and mesmerizing, capturing a spectrum of blues that can vary subtly as the gem is viewed from differing angles.

This opal's cut is a tablet morph, a choice that maximizes its brilliance while maintaining structural integrity. The trillion shape not only highlights its vibrant hues but also provides a modern aesthetic that is both elegant and timeless. The craftsmanship involved in the tablet cut showcases our dedication to quality and precision. Utilizing advanced techniques in gemstone cutting, we ensure each facet is carefully crafted to reflect light in the most optimal manner, enhancing the gemstone's natural beauty and uniqueness. A clarity grade of very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, guarantees a translucence that merely hints at the natural complexities within the stone, offering a window to its origin and enhancing its individuality among opals.

The color intensity of this blue opal is rated as vivid, making it a truly singular find in our collection. Our expert gemologists at The Natural Gemstone Company dedicate themselves to selecting only pieces that meet the highest standards of brilliance and color saturation. The excellent polish of the gemstone ensures a top-tier finish, allowing for maximum luster that complements the stone's breathtaking natural shades. The interplay of colors is not only a reflection of its external attributes but also of the meticulous care taken during its preparation, from extraction to cutting. The skilled hands that bring this opal to life employ a traditional craft honed over generations yet intertwined with state-of-the-art technologies to achieve perfection in form and function.

From a technical perspective, knowing an opal's durability is essential when considering it for various types of jewelry. The Mohs scale rates opals generally around 5.5 to 6.5 in hardness, suggesting a level of resilience apt for specific types of wear that require care to maintain longevity. This blue opal, due to both its geological origins and its expert craftsmanship, offers a compelling balance of beauty and strength. The Natural Gemstone Company assists clients in understanding the physical properties of their jewelry piece, providing details necessary to preserve its pristine condition over extended periods. Such insights are paramount for the knowledgeable buyer who appreciates the sophistication inherent to finely crafted gemstones. Understanding these details empowers owners to enjoy the legacy of a black opal while appreciating the distinct narrative embedded within each piece.
