AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
5mm beads
Bracelet weighing 4.5 grams
Wrist circumference of 16.5 cm
Important:
Photos were taken from different angles and under different 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, you 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 diversity of colors and their translucency. Black opal, with its dark base highlighting vivid color flashes, is particularly rare and sought after.
It presents a light base, often white, which enhances the play of colors on its surface.
Today, Ethiopian opal is highly prized for its beauty and rarity, contributing to Ethiopia’s growing reputation as a major source of high-quality opals.
