Specimen: Ethiopian Welo Opal pendant in natural stone, mounted in 925 silver with yellow gold plating, measuring 2 mm by 1 cm and weighing 1.1 g.
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 amplifies artistic expression, favors 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, to prevent irreversible internal microcracks.
Ethiopian opal has the characteristic of rapidly changing appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light illuminating it. Depending on brightness and/or lighting, you may see multicolored fire or simply a milky base. This is where the magic of this stone resides.
