[On sale 9/23 at 10 PM] Australian Black Opal 0.256ct Loose Stone
Opal is a gemstone characterized by its shimmering, iridescent light. There are several types of opals, but among them, the red flames flickering within the pitch-black darkness of a black opal possess a beauty that is impossible to look away from. The body color can be black, blue, or gray. The photos were taken using a penlight.
This stone is from Lightning Ridge, Australia, known as the premier source of black opal. From its deep blue body color, plays of green and blue light emerge.
