Vibrant 3.36ct Blue Lightning Ridge Solid Black Opal Cabochon 19x15mm Pear-shape This larger sized, solid Lightning Ridge opal is a beauty, displaying the usual characteristics of opal from Lightning Ridge, with a dark body tone and electric flashes of colour, the gemstone will look fabulous set into a pendant or ring. This stone was purchased in the rough in around 2011 and cut into a stunning tear drop shape with an excellent polish. It has been in my collection for fifteen years now and I can't keep all of them, I will be listing a few new opals in the upcoming weeks so keep an eye out!. This particular gem is a nice semi-black with a fine floral pattern and a little webbing that is natural and unique to opal. It makes the opal appear to have a lizard like pattern. This million year old stunner displays, electric blues and green across the face and when moved has a mesmerising back sheen pattern as can be seen in photo 2. The opal is a great size at 19 x 15 mm and is a decent depth 3.1 mm. All ready to set and enjoy. Dimensions are as follows: Height 19 mm x width 15 mm x depth 3.1 mm Weight 3.36 carats
