You can view a video under direct light in all its splendor below description:
It is said that the ancient Greeks believed opal was Zeus's solidified tear, fallen from Olympus upon 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 hold within it the fire of Prometheus, the radiance of Aphrodite’s stars, and the depth of Hades's mysteries. Each flash is like a myth reborn: a hidden universe that only reveals itself to those who contemplate it with reverence.
It is not just a precious gem; it is a legendary talisman, symbol of power, protection and ancestral magic. A jewel worthy of emperors and heroes, ready to find a new guardian in this auction.
