Solid Black Opal

This 1.45ct Solid Black Opal from Lightning Ridge is cut as a refined oval cabochon with a high, glassy polish. Its body tone reads deep navy-black, giving the stone a calm, inky presence until it catches the light. Across the dome, electric cobalt and royal blue flare into teal-green flashes, appearing as broad, velvety bands that drift with movement. The colour sits beneath the surface like pooled pigment, creating a moody, gallery-grade look that pairs beautifully with both sleek modern settings and classic gold. A poised Australian black opal with luminous, oceanic fire.
