Some stones stop you mid-scroll. This black opal is one of them.
Against a deep, dark body tone – the very quality that makes black opals among the most coveted gems in the world – a play of colour unfolds in vivid red and green. It shifts as you move the stone: a flash of deep crimson gives way to a surge of rich green, then back again. There's nothing static about it. The light seems to live inside this opal, moving on its own terms.
At 6.24 carats, with dimensions of 16.85 × 11.59 × 4.82 mm, it carries real presence. The oval freeform cut was shaped not for geometric perfection, but to let the colour perform at its best – and it does. The silhouette follows the stone's natural rhythm, giving it a character that no calibrated cut could replicate.
Red and green are among the most visually striking colour combinations an opal can produce, and on this dark background, they hit with full intensity. If you're looking for a centrepiece – for a statement ring, a one-of-a-kind pendant, or simply a collector's stone worth owning – this black opal deserves serious consideration.
