Ethiopian Opal Pendant
$240.00
MULTI-COLOR OVAL-SHAPED ETHIOPIAN OPAL IN 14k PENDANT WITH DELICATE GOLD CHAIN
98% of the world’s precious opal comes from Australia, with the 2 runner-up countries being Mexico and Ethiopia. Ethiopian opals are known for their vibrant play-of-color and unique hydrophane property, meaning they can absorb water and temporarily change appearance. This absorption can make them appear more translucent or even change color, but the original appearance returns upon drying. Metaphysically speaking, Ethiopian opals are thought to enhance creativity, balance emotions, boost intuition, and promote spiritual growth.
