This exquisite semi black opal from Australia captures attention with a deep, complex play of color and a rich body tone, offering the best of both dark and vivid opal character. We present one opaque multi color opal weighing 6.26 carat, cut into a classic oval shape with dimensions 13.34 by 10.14 by 7.79 mm, presented in a smooth cabochon cut that enhances its internal color flashes. The stone shows an intense color intensity with brilliant greens and electric blues dancing across the surface, and areas of violet and teal adding depth as the light moves. The polish is excellent, delivering a high luster that allows the vibrant pattern to sing, while the semi black body provides contrast so the color play appears more dramatic than lighter opals. This opal is entirely natural, no enhancement, and its Australian origin speaks to reliable provenance, making it an exceptional specimen for collectors and designers alike.
At The Natural Gemstone Company we are proud to offer stones of this quality and rarity, and this 6.26 carat semi black opal is ideal for a striking ring center, a pendant that showcases color from every angle, or a bespoke piece that highlights its oval cabochon form. Given its opaque nature and solid body tone, it is well suited to protective settings such as bezel or a secure claw, and its substantial dimensions make it an impressive focal point without requiring an oversized mount. Caring for this natural opal is straightforward, avoid extreme heat and harsh chemicals, clean gently with warm water and a soft cloth, and do not use ultrasonic cleaners. Because the gem is unenhanced and comes from Australia, it holds both intrinsic beauty and collector value, and our team at The Natural Gemstone Company can provide additional information on origin documentation, fitting recommendations, and custom setting options. If you value a natural, vividly colored opal with strong presence and fine polish, this semi black opal is a rare opportunity to own a distinctive and elegant gemstone.
