1.62 ct Colorless Opal - Oval

This 1.62-carat opal is cut as an oval measuring 9.2 x 7.8 x 4.9 mm, showing a colorless face, sourced from Ethiopia.

Opal is hydrated silica that can break white light into a play of living color, a fire no two stones repeat; it holds up to a fifth of its weight in water, which is why it glows in a way nothing crystalline does. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

A genuine opal at a size and price you can actually wear, the real thing rather than a machine-grown copy. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
