Precious Opal (Multicolor)

Item Description

This "Oval Cabochon" cut gem of Precious Opal hosting flashes of orange, yellow, green, blue and purple which show up in reflected light. In transmitted light, the stone shows a warm golden-orange hue. As you can see, the stone shows good color all over, and it's important to mention that this is a solid Opal, not a doublet or a triplet, which makes a difference when it comes to the value. Opal is one of the most diverse gems out there. It's one of the few stones that looks just as attractive when it's crystal clear as it does when the stones are opaque. Despite it's rather simplistic chemistry, Opals show a great range of color in many varieties. Priced at $924.00 retail.
