All auctions / Ethnographic / 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.
