The Natural Gemstone Company proudly presents this extraordinary 6.65-carat fancy shape multi-color opal, an exquisite specimen of a Boulder Opal sourced from the renowned opal mines of Australia. This opal is distinguished by its distinct translucence and striking array of colors, which make it an enticing choice among gemstone collectors and enthusiasts. With dimensions of 24.54 x 7.92 x 3.36 mm, this opal is meticulously crafted into a tablet cut, maximizing the stone's natural appeal and enhancing its multi-hued vibrancy. The excellence in craftsmanship is further evident in the stone's clarity grade, rated as very slightly included at eye level, allowing for an impressive display of interior play-of-color against a pristine backdrop.
The intensity of this Boulder Opal's color is classified as intense, a quality that sets it apart from many gemstones within its category. The spectral colors exhibited are as vivid as they are varied, capturing an extensive palette that includes brilliant blues, vibrant greens, radiant reds, and striking yellows. This stone is internationally celebrated for its ability to exhibit mesmerizing shifting colors, a characteristic derived from its unique internal structure. Notably, Boulder Opals are acclaimed for their strong and enduring body tone, affording them a distinct advantage in durability and versatility in jewelry design compared to other opal varieties.
When comparing the reflective qualities of this Boulder Opal to other gemstones, its superior luminescence and remarkable iridescence mark it as truly unique. Unlike diamonds with their precise facets designed to maximize reflection, this opal's tablet cut is tailored to accentuate the natural dispersion of light through its microstructure, amplifying the stone's renowned opalescent glow. The excellent polish applied to the surface of the Boulder Opal ensures a smooth, lustrous finish that enhances its reflective capabilities, setting a high benchmark in its category. This remarkable gemstone offers far more than traditional brilliance; it presents a dynamic interplay of color display, appealing to knowledgeable buyers who appreciate the fine intricacies of gemological excellence.
