RARISSIME Opal Ethiopian Chocolate – Incandescent...

Here is a mineral gem of rare intensity: this Ethiopian chocolate opal glows with a stunning, shimmering brilliance. On a matte brown matrix, a polished window reveals an exceptional play of colors—a dance of reds, greens, yellows, and oranges that seem to rise from the stone’s depths. The internal texture, complex and fractal, amplifies the vivacity of the reflections with every change of angle. Ethiopia has over the last two decades become an indispensable source of spectacular opals. Among them, the so-called "chocolate" opals are particularly sought after, especially when they exhibit such color quality, contrast, and a naturally polished surface. This one, by its rare weight and blazing internal fire, surpasses the usual standards and clearly reaches a museum-worthy level. Technical characteristics: Weight: 49.25 carats Dimensions: 24.6 mm x 21.6 mm x 15.5 mm Origin: Ethiopia Color: Chocolate brown base, intense multicolored flashes Shape: Rough piece partially polished Texture: Matte and polished contrasting surface, very vivid internal color window Special features: Exceptionally vivid and extensive multicolored reflections Very rare weight for this type of opal, maintaining a natural appearance Strong, unique visual presence, ideal for display Conclusion: An exceptional piece for a discerning collector, combining visual intensity, rarity of formation, and dimensions beyond the norm.
