All auctions / Ethnographic / Welo opal is Ethiopian
This natural cabochon displays a color play with remarkable intensity: electric green flashes, emerald, yellow and red burst against a golden background speckled with flashes that shift with every angle of light. The colors are vivid and contrasted, signature of the most expressive Welo opals. Provenance: Welo region, world reference for opal since the 2000s. Lithotherapy: A stone of creativity and emotion, opal is associated with the sacral chakra and the crown chakra. It amplifies artistic expression, encourages spontaneity, and invites embracing change with lightness. Care: Welo opal is a hydrophane stone; it absorbs water. Avoid repeated contact with water, perfumes, and household products, to prevent irreversible internal microfissures. The Ethiopian opal has the peculiarity of rapidly changing appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light that illuminates it. Depending on brightness, one can see multicolored fires or simply a pale base. 1. Secure shipping with tracking number. 2. Shipped twice a week.
