AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Provenance : Welo region, worldwide reference for opal since the 2000s.
Lithotherapy : Stone of creativity and emotion, opal is associated with the sacral chakra and the crown chakra. It enhances artistic expression, fosters spontaneity, and invites embracing change with lightness.
Care : The Welo opal is a hydrophane stone; it absorbs water. Avoid repeated contact with water, perfumes and household products, at the risk of irreversible internal microcracks.
The Ethiopian opal has the peculiarity of quickly changing its appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light that illuminates it. Depending on the brightness, one can see multicolored flashes or simply a milky base. This is where the magic of this stone lies.
