1.87" Precious, Ethiopian Fire Opal (38 g)

For the first time ever on FossilEra.com, we are pleased to present this 1.87" wide, kaleidoscopic, Ethiopian precious fire opal! These opals are phenomenally flashy and eye-catching. The amber orange body of this specimen is enhanced with a dancing play of color that flitters between blue, red, green, yellow and purple. Pictures simply can't do justice to the extreme beauty of this opal.

This specimen is in its raw, natural state with minimal matrix removal to expose more of the opal's inner beauty. As is, this specimen makes a stunning display piece but is also perfect for shaping and polishing by an experienced lapidarist.

The opal is shipped with a small amount of water to maintain hydration until the customer decides how to keep the specimen.
