This egg shaped opal is truly a fascinating treasure. The way the colours leap out and flicker and roll from side to side, top to bottom. Its dark body tone from where the colour flashes with such intensity is the cause of its mysterious and moody nature. Holding and moving the smooth opal in hand for minutes on end has a mesmerising effect. This stone is hard to put down!

Whoever buys this opal will possess a truly unique black opal gemstone. I am a dealer and cutter and cutting and handling this opal gave me immense satisfaction as each touch at the wheel revealed the inner beauty.

One can make it into any jewellery they wish - it looks good from all angles. But having it as a loose stone, sitting freely in an exceptional opal collection is also very much worth considering.

NB: All stones are cut by me in my Sydney studio.
