1.66 ct Colorless Opal - Oval

This 1.66-carat opal is cut as an oval measuring 11.7 x 7.6 x 3.9 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 is entirely untreated; no heat, no enhancement, the color exactly as the earth made it.

A natural opal small enough to wear every day and real enough to mean it, not a lab stone and not glass. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and films it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
