This weighs 3.25 CTS and has been cut into a pear shape. The measurements are approximately 13.8 x 9.7 x 5.3 mm. This stone has a true rainbow play of color, with bright flashes "dancing" upon the surface. Almost every shade imaginable is exhibited, although there is a very notable section of red iridescence that shifts with bright luminosity near the center of the gem. As with all opals, the coloring is most intense when viewed under a light source, either artificial or sunlight. This is a natural gemstone and has been smoke treated to enhance color. Don't be fooled by lesser imitations. This is not a doublet or filled product, this is solid earth mined stone.
