Important Notes for Working with Ethiopian Welo Opal:
- Hydrophane Nature: These natural opals are hydrophane, meaning they can absorb water, which may temporarily affect their transparency and appearance. They typically return to their original state once dry. For longevity, avoiding prolonged water immersion in finished jewelry is recommended.
- Natural Inclusions: As natural rough stones, it's typical to find minor inclusions, small fractures, or sand pockets. These are part of the stone's unique journey from the earth and can often be expertly worked around by a skilled lapidary. We encourage you to carefully examine all provided high-resolution photos, as they are an integral part of the description.
