20.42ct Transparent Ethiopian Opal Rough Gem

Welo Ethiopian hydrophane opal mineral specimen with an amazing play of color.  Not only that, but this piece is very fine cutting material that will have a great yield. In hand it is not as blue looking without a dark background. The play of color is still amazing though. Watch Video to see the play of color and full view of this opal.

We recommend that this opal material NOT be submerged in water (unless it is being cut, water will keep it cool), and it should never have any oils applied to it. Also, due to the hydrophane nature of this opal, the weight can vary slightly with humidity. We consider this to be a Thumbnail (TN) sized specimen.
