AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptional pendant features a natural Ethiopian opal, displaying beautiful internal color play, delicately inlaid into a boulder-type host rock, offering a spectacular contrast between the rough stone and the luminous gem. The dark matrix highlights the opal’s fire, revealing green, blue, orange, or red flashes depending on the light angle.

The Ethiopian opal, discovered in the early 2000s in the Welo region, is today sought after worldwide for its unique transparency and intense play of colors, often more vivid than that of traditional opals. As for the Boulder opal, it is known for being one of the rarest natural matrices to host opal veins, mostly found in Australia. The combination of these two opal types in a single specimen makes it a truly singular geological piece.

• The Ethiopian opal is reputed to stimulate creativity, imagination, and intuition.
• It brings joyful and luminous energy, encouraging emotional expression.
• The Boulder matrix strengthens grounding, stability, and the 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 opal varieties from regions with completely different geological characteristics. This hybrid, robust, aesthetically pleasing, and naturally contrasting piece is highly sought after by collectors and rarely appears on the market.

Pendant size: 29mm x 19mm x 7mm
Weight: 5.3g
Condition: excellent

You will receive the jewelry with its velvet pouch. The shipment is carefully prepared and you will have a tracking number to verify the progress of your item.

Each of the listed items is photographed individually, so you will receive the piece as shown in the photos. This pendant is unique.

We strive to take professional photos of high quality, but since every computer, monitor, and smartphone may display colors differently, color variations may occur.
