Flaming hot, this Australian opal is a sensational color show.
Adore and cherish hot reds (the rarest opal color) and fiery oranges. Then this one is an all-out "yes".
Opals, in all their moods and mystery, vary with the light and surrounding colors. But this one almost always pops with all-over flashes of light my fire reds and ember oranges in a backdrop of creamy white.
Other hues include hints of lemon-lime and receding shades of peacock feather blues and greens.
A gorgeous cabochon of a generous size, its 5.9 carats (17.4 x 12. 5 mm) powers the impact!
Fan shapes clasp each side, and the opal is also held by four prongs. The entire setting is 14k gold from the 1940s and has an ideal balance of size, yet wearability.
Note: View the video for its true flair! Even photographic lights tend to dampen its energy.
