About the Item

This exquisite vividly colored opal is known as a Black Opal or “Peacock Feather” opal from Lightening Ridge, Australia. This single stone is totally natural and untreated and size 6 1/2 but easily sizable. We date it to 1910. With a plethora of different colors and textures available, the opal, comes in every color of the rainbow. Australia is the heart of the world’s opal mining industry, home to 97% of the different types and are the largest provider of opals to the world. Australia boasts the most diverse and high quality range of opal, with every color of the visible spectrum, from the deepest and clearest blues and greens to rich pinks, vermilion and fuchsia to bright oranges and soft violets, every color you can imagine! The value and quality of an opal depends on many factors, including the body tone, brilliance, pattern, number of colors and unique faults. Other important factors are the quality of the cut & polish, and the size of the stone. The Australian Black Opal is one of the rarest and highly sought after gemstones. Black opals come in every colo r of the rainbow, and their dark body tone complements these colors to appear even richer and more intense. There may be some reflections on the photos caused by our light box; however the ring has no dark spots or imperfections.
