Description from the seller
Incredible WELO Opal with a size of 1.40 cm.
3.32 ct XL Opal 1.40 x 11.00 x 4.60 mm Finest Rainbow Welo Opal Cabochon (Natural Opal)
0.67 grams heavy and 1.40 cm by 1.10 cm large.
A large, extremely fine Rainbow Opal weighing a total of 3.32 carats (natural Opal) from the famous Welo region in Ethiopia — in its natural state, the stone is very pure and clear, wonderfully transparent, with a constantly changing play of colors depending on the lighting. The photos show the original stone photographed under different lighting conditions.
Fascinating valuable original Rainbow Welo Opal from Ethiopia
Directly from the famous Wollo Province, the center of East African opal deposits: this extraordinary gemstone combines natural purity with excellent color play and maximum rainbow shimmer — with the color play varying depending on the lighting.
The hydrophane/water-containing opal displays an intense, three-dimensional spectrum of red, green, violet and gold – rare in this saturation and size.
Natural silica gel structures in the stone refract the light in the finest microarchitecture – a mineralogical miracle.
With 3.32 ct, this is an impressive, high-quality collector and investment gemstone.
Untreated or set in platinum: a symbol of style, rarity and substance.
Invest in geological excellence with lasting value.
The stone originates from the Semien Welo mountain region and is therefore called Welo Opal.
Specific location: Wegel Tena - Welo
The stone has been checked by us for authenticity.
