About Ethiopian Opal:

Ethiopian opal is renowned for its incredible spectrum of colors, which can include dazzling flashes of blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. This vibrant display, known as "opalescence," is a result of light diffracting through the stone's microscopic silica spheres. Each Ethiopian opal is a geological masterpiece, and this specimen is no exception.
