AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
5mm Pearls
Bracelet of 4.5 grams
Wrist circumference of 16.5 cm
Important:
Photos were taken from different angles and under varied lighting conditions to reveal the multiple facets of this stone. Indeed, opal has the peculiarity of quickly changing appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light that shines on it.
Depending on the brightness, one can see multicolored fire or simply a translucent base.
The first Ethiopian opals were discovered in the 1990s, notably in the Wollo province. These stones are distinguished by their color diversity and translucency. The black opal, with its dark base highlighting vivid color flashes, is particularly rare and sought after.
It features a light base, often white, which enhances the play of colors on its surface.
Today, Ethiopian opal is highly valued for its beauty and rarity, contributing to Ethiopia’s growing reputation as a major source of high-quality opals.
