One beautiful transparent 7.53 carat oval shape multi color opal from Australia is offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, this Boulder Opal measures 15.85 by 13.04 by 6.79 millimeters and is presented in a tablet cut that emphasizes broad surface color and chatoyant flashes. The gem displays intense color intensity with vivid patches and streaks of red, orange, green and occasional violet, the clarity grade is very slightly included when evaluated at eye level which reflects the natural ironstone matrix and character of quality boulder opal. The polish on this stone is excellent, the surface is smooth and highly reflective, there has been no enhancement, the transparency combined with natural matrix gives the stone a dynamic three dimensional appearance that shifts as it moves in the light, collectors will appreciate the balance between color play and natural structure.
As a gemstone specialist I recommend this stone for a statement ring or a pendant where the tablet cut and generous 7.53 carat weight can be shown to best effect, the modest depth allows comfortable setting options and the strong color play looks spectacular under both warm and neutral lighting. Consider a bezel setting in yellow or rose gold to warm the fiery tones, or a low profile basket to protect the stone while allowing light to enter the crown, bespoke mounting will highlight the unique patterning and make a one of a kind piece. To care for this opal clean with a soft cloth and mild soapy water, avoid ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to heat, this opal comes from Australia with no enhancement and is supplied with the integrity and expertise you expect from The Natural Gemstone Company, we can provide additional detailed photos from multiple angles, advice on matching stones, consultation for custom design, and a certificate of authenticity on request, I am happy to assist with any questions and to help you bring this exceptional boulder opal into a finished jewellery creation.
