The remarkable gem Opals coming from Ethiopia continue to be extremely popular. The play-of-color that this material is capable of is downright astonishing - broad patches of bright green, highlights of red and even blue and violet.  Here, this remarkable display is set on a fantastic, large colorless body with an excellent level of translucency. Great coverage of color in a fine honeycomb pattern and superb size - a full spectral range of color that would look great mounted.
