An absolutely legendary locale in the gem world, we do love a great Australian black Opal. The look is entirely different than the ubiquitous Ethiopian material - the gray/black matrix setting of the spectral colors like no others. Great size and regular shape, this one has a full range of fine colors but the emphasis is on greens and blues certainly. These all of which move effortlessly while the stone is in motion. Fine example of a very well loved material.
