Elegant 1.18ct Ethiopian Opal Oval Cabochon

The Details

  • Weight: 1.18 carats

  • Shape: Classic Oval Cabochon

  • Origin: Hand-selected at the world-renowned Tucson Gem & Mineral Show in 2025.

  • Craftsmanship: Following its acquisition, this stone was meticulously dried in the Arizona desert for 9 months prior to being cut. This vital stabilization process ensures the stone's integrity and long-term stability, making it a reliable choice for fine jewelry.

Radiant Play-of-Color

This opal boasts a stunning array of internal flashes, with ripples of neon green, citrus orange, and soft violets that shift with every movement. Its high-domed oval cut maximizes the depth of the "fire," creating a "rolling" effect of color that is synonymous with high-quality Ethiopian specimens.

Why This Stone Stands Out

  • Expertly Stabilized: The extended 9-month drying period in Arizona's arid climate means this opal has been "pre-seasoned," significantly reducing the risk of crazing.

  • Versatile Design: The 1.18ct size and oval shape are ideal for a delicate solitaire ring, a sophisticated necklace charm, or as part of a multi-stone custom piece.

  • A Collector's History: With a clear provenance from the 2025 Tucson show, this stone carries the prestige of one of the world's most famous gem events.

A beautiful blend of scientific stability and ethereal beauty, this opal is ready to be the centerpiece of your next heirloom project.
