Hello and welcome to splendid specimens




When it comes to my favourite black opals, it is always these ones that are zoned perfectly in colour. You could not ask for more detail of colour play and more of a mixture of natural colours.




When we find Opal, we never have a choice of what colour we are going to get. This particular gemstone has produced a beautiful mix with two patterns.


There is many colours in this opal, black base with blue, Royal blue, Aqua, red, orange, yellow, greens, Pink, and even some pinkish purple tones.



11.25 x 8.30 x 5.20 mm


This gemstone is 1.90 carat , just perfect for that next jewelry creation or just simply add to that forever growing gemstone collection. Black opal of quality is hard to find and this one just really has that perfect colour combo in a sizeable gem.


Now unlike most Opal, this gemstone has colour on top and all the way around. The reasoning for this is this is high-quality Opal and the colour band runs entirely through the gemstone. there is no pot or sand or any waste, this is all colour.



The thing that most people love about Opal is the carat weight doesn’t need to be a really high number to still have a fantastic size.This is simply because Opal is very light. This is a very solid black base colour and therefore the colours are very vivid.


If I could only find More black opal with this very very unique colour play, I would be a very happy man. The colour of the gemstone is predetermined in the earth and if you are very lucky you will get something special as this one.
