Indeed, opal has the peculiarity of rapidly changing appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light that illuminates it. Depending on brightness, you may see multicolored fire or simply a translucent base. The first Ethiopian opals were discovered in the 1990s, notably in Wollo province. These stones are distinguished by their color diversity and translucency. Black opal, with its dark base highlighting bright color flashes, is particularly rare and prized. It features a clear base, often white, which enhances the play of colors on its surface. Today, Ethiopian opal is highly valued for its beauty and rarity, contributing to Ethiopia's growing reputation as a major source of high-quality opals. 1. Secure shipping with tracking number. 2.
