AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The King of Opal:
From my personal collection Opalwanted I bring you this spectacular Australian black opal — green-blue fire with red testimony.
This oval cabochon of black opal features a vibrant and deep play of color: intense greens and abyssal blues dominate the surface, with flashes of red and orange emerging as witnesses of fire. The stone has been hand-polished to reveal its inner scene with utmost dignity.
Origin: Australia (Lightning Ridge)
Type: Natural, untreated black opal
Form: Oval cabochon
Play of color: Very vivid, visible from multiple angles
Ideal use: High-end jewelry, collection, or as a witness stone
This opal is offered not as a mere gem, but as an act of recognition. A contained flame, ready to be mounted or kept as a ritual scene.
- Origin: Australia
- Precious stone with dark base.
- Vibrant and striking play of color.
- Color: Black and Multicolor
- Weight: 3Ct
- Measurements: 12mm x 9mm x 5mm
It is said that the ancient Greeks believed opal was Zeus’s solidified teardrop, fallen from Olympus after beholding the beauty of the universe. In Roman mythology, it was said that this gem contained the hope of all colors, a fragment of the rainbow trapped in stone.
This black opal, with red, green, and blue flashes, seems to guard within it the fire of Prometheus, the radiance of Aphrodite’s stars, and the depths of Hades’s mysteries. Each glint is like a myth reborn: an hidden universe that reveals itself only to those who contemplate it with reverence.
It is not just a gemstone, but a legendary talisman, symbol of power, protection, and ancient magic. A jewel worthy of emperors and heroes, ready to find a new guardian in this auction.
