Ethiopian Black Opal  Ethiopian black opal is a rare and stunning gemstone known for its deep, dark body color and vibrant flashes of color, called "play of color." Unlike traditional opals, which are often lighter, these opals have a rich, almost mystical appearance, making them highly sought after by collectors and jewelry lovers.

What Makes It Special? Ethiopian black opals are unique because of their intense and unpredictable flashes of color. The dark background enhances these colors, making them appear even more vivid and striking. They are also more durable and resistant to cracking compared to some other types of opals.

Common flashes: Red, orange, green, and yellow are frequently seen in Ethiopian black opals.

Rare flashes: Blue and purple are less common, and when they appear, they add an extra level of rarity and value to the stone.
