Shape: Oval cabochon

Ideal use: Fine jewelry, collection, or as a statement stone
This opal is not offered as a mere gem, but as an act of recognition. A contained flame, ready to be mounted or kept as a ritual scene.

You can see a small shorts description below:
It is said that the ancient Greeks believed opal was Zeus's solidified tears, 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 glow of Aphrodite’s stars, and the depth of Hades’ mysteries. Each flash is like a myth revived: an unseen universe revealed only to those who view it with reverence.
It is not just a precious stone; it is 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.
