detailed Description
The briolette cut is one of the most elaborate cutting styles in the world of gemstones – a fully faceted drop that breaks light from every angle, turning the stone into a vivid, three-dimensional source of light. On an opal, this combination is truly remarkable: while opals are almost always cut as cabochons, this 15.89-carat Welo opal demonstrates what becomes possible when a different path is taken.
The white body color may seem understated at first – but that's exactly the point. The moment light meets the facets, the play of color awakens and draws the eye in. At 13.15 x 23.83 mm, the stone has an elegant, elongated proportion that makes it a natural choice as a pendant or the centerpiece of an extraordinary piece of jewelry.
Welo opals from the Ethiopian region of Welo have firmly established themselves among the world's most significant opal origins – celebrated for their vivid play of color and remarkable quality. Certified by the IGE – Instituto Gemológico Español.
