Solid Semi-Black Opal

This Solid Semi-Black Opal from Lightning Ridge carries a soft charcoal-to-smoke body tone that lets its colour play bloom with restraint and depth. Across the polished cabochon, electric greens flare in wisps and ribbons, joined by pools of cobalt and violet that shift as the stone moves. Along one edge, warmer flashes of amber and ember-red appear like a hidden seam of fire, giving the piece a painterly, layered look. At 3.05 carats, it’s an elegant, elongated cabochon suited to a refined pendant or statement ring where its changing colours can be enjoyed in motion.
