AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptional pendant features a natural Ethiopian opal, showcasing beautiful play of colors within, delicately inlaid in a boulder-type rocky matrix, offering a spectacular contrast between the rough stone and the luminous gem. The dark matrix enhances the opal's fire, revealing flashes of green, blue, orange, or red depending on the angle of light.

Ethiopian opal, discovered in the early 2000s in the Welo region, is today sought after worldwide for its unique transparency and its vibrant play of color, often more vivid than that of traditional opals. As for Boulder opal, it is known to be one of the rarest natural matrices and most resistant to hosting opal veins, primarily found in Australia. The combination of these two types of opal in a single specimen makes for a truly distinctive geological piece.

The Ethiopian opal is reputed to stimulate creativity, imagination, and intuition.
• She brings a joyful and luminous energy, encouraging emotional expression.
• The Boulder matrix reinforces grounding, stability and connection to the Earth.
• Together, they create a stone of balance between inspiration and rootedness, ideal for sensitive and creative people.


This pendant brings together two varieties of opal from geologically distinct regions. This kind of hybrid piece, sturdy, aesthetically striking and naturally contrasted, is highly sought after by collectors and rarely appears on the market.

Pendant size: 29mm x 17mm x 7mm
Weight: 26 cts
Condition: excellent


You will receive the jewelry in its velvet pouch. The item will be carefully packaged and you will receive a tracking number to monitor its delivery.

Each item is photographed individually, so you will receive the exact piece of jewelry shown in the photos. This pendant is unique.

We strive to take high-quality professional photos, but since every computer, monitor, and smartphone can display different color qualities, this can lead to color variations.
