A calibrated 9x7mm Ethiopian opal oval cabochon with a semi-transparent body that sits a touch deeper in tone than most, giving the play-of-color an extra dramatic quality. Vivid warm orange and red fire blazes in a bold central patch, surrounded by electric green around the edges - the combination creates a striking contrasting display that appears almost three-dimensional against the deeper body color.
From the Welo region of Ethiopia, natural and untreated. The 8.8x7.2mm size fits standard 9x7mm oval settings. A great choice for someone who wants a more intense, dramatic Ethiopian opal rather than the typical bright white variety.
