*Note* 3mm is a relatively small stone, that is comparable to a diameter of 3/16" diameter to give you a visual image if you are not familiar with measurements in millimeters. Picture #2 shows them in my hand to get a good idea of their size.


They are not large in size, but their fabulous color play with its dramatic array of colors and shades, demands the attention of anyone who sees them.


The excellent play of color in these opals is quite beautiful. The dramatic and varied flashes of color are what Ethiopian opals are well known for.


There are multiple shades of blue, green, yellow, and orange that flash from its depths depending on the light source and angle. I uploaded photos that captured some of those colors as they flashed simultaneously.


These are from a recently discovered mine in Welo, Ethiopia and are considered amongst the finest Opals there are.


Ethiopian Opals are still available through first markets, but it is anticipated that Ethiopian mines will be played out' mid 2016, making them all relatively expensive and difficult to come by. Thus, your earrings will only increase in value as time goes on.


Interesting Factoid: The flashes of color come from the play of moisture that is within the stone. The large variety of colors is what makes these such highly desirable Opals and why they are becoming increasingly rare. Excellent color play.

"Oh, the spectral delight that is Opal, the “Eye Stone.” Like lightning in a rainbow, it flashes its brilliance with even the slightest movement and claims notice by all who witness its phenomenal “fire.”

Opal with play of color has always been considered one of the most desired gems in the marketplace, earning it the undisputed title as 'Queen of Gemstones'. With the discovery of precious (and stable) opal in Ethiopia's northern Welo District in 2008 this remarkable gem has reclaimed its throne and rules again as one of the most in-demand gemstones in the 21st century
