1.73ct Lightning Ridge Ghost Opal™ Oval Cabochon.
From the opal fields of Lightning Ridge, this striking Ghost Opal™ is a solid crystal opal with a delicate light-responsive nature. Nearly colorless against a white background, it transforms dramatically when placed over a dark surface, where its hidden play of color vividly comes to life. Cut as an oval cabochon with a low 2mm dome, its sleek profile allows the play of color to display clearly across the stone.
Bright flashes of purple and blue are visible from every angle, creating an even, lively shimmer. Measuring approximately 13.8 x 10.5mm, this one-of-a-kind opal will be best set with a closed, blackened back to maximize its beauty. A small edge inclusion/chip is present (visible in video), though it can be easily covered with a bezel or similar setting, and the price reflects this imperfection.
