Black Rainbow Welo-Opal – 6.98 ct, Ethiopia
Directly from the famous Wollo Province, the heart of East African opal deposits: This extraordinary gemstone combines natural purity with an incredible play of color.
The hydrophane / water-containing opal displays an intense, three-dimensional spectrum of red, green, blue, and gold — unique with this excellent play of color for such clarity (held up to the light, the opal appears perfectly transparent) and the exceptional size of 1.80 cm.
Natural silica gel structures in the stone bend the light into the finest microarchitecture — a mineralogical wonder.
At 6.98 ct, this is an impressive investment and collector's stone.
Raw or platinum-set: a symbol of style, rarity, and substance.
Invest in geological excellence with lasting value.
The stone comes from the Semien Wollo Highlands region, and is therefore referred to as Welo opal.
Specific location of discovery: Wegel Tena (The stone has been tested by us for authenticity)
