Black Opal 2.30 ct — Lightning Ridge (Australia)

Black opal from Lightning Ridge is the most prized of all opal, its dark body tone making the play-of-color blaze with electric intensity. This 2.30-carat cabochon flashes blue, green, and prized red across a charcoal base — no two opals are alike, making each a singular treasure.
