AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Dominant red | Honeycomb pattern | Unique piece
From the depths of Lightning Ridge emerges this solid black 7.5-carat opal, precisely cut and blessed with a honeycomb pattern that defies logic. The dominant red burns like ancient fire, intertwined with greens and oranges that vibrate under direct light. Each cell seems to contain a fragment of a sleeping volcano.
This is not just a gem: it is a fragment of legend. Forged in the pact between fire and water, its hive pattern was, according to mythology, sculpted by the celestial bees of the goddess Melísa, guardians of divine nectar. This gem encases memory, transformation, and destiny.
