About this Product
Amazing play of color natural Ethiopian Opal(.54ct, VVS, Ethiopia) hand set in a sterling silver ring. This Opal has more color then the picture can show. With every turn a rainbow of colors dance across the cabochon gemstone. One of the world’s most coveted gemstones, opal’s name evolved from the Roman opalus which was derived from the Greek opallios, meaning “to see a change of color.” The Greek word was a modification of the ancient Indian Sanskrit name for opal, upala, which meant “precious stone.” Opal's unique qualities have attracted the attention of many ancient civilizations – and still do.
Opals possess flashes of rainbow colors that change with the angle of observation, called play of color.
