AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This natural cabochon displays a play of colors with remarkable intensity: bursts of electric green, emerald, yellow, and red explode over a golden background studded with flashes that change with every angle of light. The colors are vivid and contrasted, the hallmark of the most expressive Welo opals.
Origin: Welo region, the world reference for opal since the 2000s.
Lithotherapy: A stone of creativity and emotion, opal is associated with the sacral chakra and the crown chakra. It amplifies artistic expression, fosters spontaneity, and invites embracing change with ease.
Care: Welo opal is a hydrophane stone; it absorbs water. Avoid repeated contact with water, perfumes, and household cleaners, to prevent irreversible internal microcracks.
Ethiopian opal has the peculiarity of rapidly changing appearance depending on the intensity and the nature of the light illuminating it. Depending on brightness, you may see multicolored fires or simply a light base.
