Welo opal is Ethiopian

Welo opal is Ethiopian

This natural cabochon displays a spectrum of colors with remarkable intensity: electric green flashes, emerald, yellow and red burst against a golden background sprinkled with sparks that shift at 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 enhances artistic expression, favors 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, at the risk of irreversible internal microcracks. The Ethiopian opal has the peculiarity of rapidly changing appearance depending on the intensity and nature of the light illuminating it. Depending on brightness, one may see multicolored fires or simply a light base. 1. Secure shipping with tracking number. 2. Shipped twice a week. For Europe and international orders, delivery time may vary from 8 to 15 days depending on the destination and the time required for customs checks at the borders. 3. All my stones are genuine, with no color treatment, resin, or plastic. They have all been selected with care, but as they are natural and artisanal products, they may sometimes show small imperfections. 4. Set in 925 sterling silver. Adjustable size 56/58. 5. The stones have changing reflections depending on the light, indoor lighting, or sun. The photos were taken from different angles and lighting conditions to show their various aspects. 6. According to Catawiki’s rules, shipping costs can only be pooled if the items are in the same sale and/or on the same day. Thank you for your interest and happy bidding.
