Description from the seller

This extraordinary Black Opal cabochon impresses with an intense, almost explosive play of color. On a deep, dark to greenish base, vivid neon greens and blues emerge, streaked with bold orange and fiery red. Depending on the viewing angle, the inside of the stone seems to glow, giving it fascinating depth and dynamism.

The high-quality cabochon cut and polish perfectly highlight the opal’s natural structure and give it a brilliant shine. A truly unique natural gem, ideal for exclusive jewelry or as a highlight for discerning collectors – powerful, rare, and full of life.

Our shipping costs have been checked and approved by Catawiki.
We use an external shipping company to carry out the final inspection, collection, packaging, and
shipping; this is why these shipping costs apply.
The buyer is responsible for any import and export charges, customs duties, shipping costs, etc.

In some of the pictures, the stone has been illuminated from behind to show you its color.
For some stones, we have held a light underneath the stone to show the color of the pieces more clearly. This may result in differences in color, etc., since every computer, monitor, and mobile phone MAY display colors differently!
