AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The King of Opals:
From my personal collection Opalwanted I present to you the unseen TWINS of Australian black opals — red-blue blaze with intense flashes. These oval twin black opals display a vibrant, deep play of color: red and orange flashes emerge like witnesses of fire. The gems have been hand-polished to reveal their internal scenes with the utmost dignity.
Origin: Australia (Lightning Ridge)
Type: Natural black opal twins
Forms: Oval cabochons
Color play: Very vivid, visible from multiple angles
Ideal use: Fine jewelry, collection, or as testimonial gems
These Twins are not offered as mere stones, but as an act of recognition. Contained flames, ready to be mounted or kept as ritual scenes.
- Precious gems with dark bases.
- Vibrant, striking color play.
- Color: Black and Multicolor
- Weight: 5.5 Ct x 5.5 Ct Total: 11 Ct
- Measurements: 16 mm x 12 mm Approx
It is said that the ancient Greeks believed opal was Zeus's solidified tears, fallen from Olympus upon beholding the beauty of the universe. In Roman myth, it was said this gem contained the hope of all colors, a fragment of the rainbow captured 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' mysteries. Each spark is like a myth revived: an hidden universe that reveals itself only to those who behold it with reverence.
It is not merely a precious stone; it is a legendary talisman, a symbol of power, protection, and ancestral magic. A jewel worthy of emperors and heroes, ready to find a new guardian in this auction.
