Description from the seller
This Black Opal cabochon shows a powerful, predominantly green play of color on a dark blue to deep green background. Luminous neon green tones spread cloud-like through the stone's interior, creating strong optical depth. The color play appears clear, rich, and vivid and changes noticeably with incident light.
The smoothly polished cabochon shape emphasizes the opal's natural structure and provides a uniform, high-quality surface. A striking natural one-of-a-kind with a calm, noble aura, ideal for high-end jewelry or as a collector's piece.
