Your cart is empty.A Short History of Ethiopian Opal. Precious opal mined in Ethiopia began entering the gem and jewelry market in 1994. This opal originated from a discovery made in the Menz Gishe District in the northern part of the Shewa Province. Opal from this area occurs in a wide range of body colors. Ethiopian Opal is a new variety of opal discovered in Wollo province of Ethiopia. It is highly valued for its vibrant body hues, bold color flashes and patterns. These opals are superior in terms of quality but are relatively cheaper than the other popular origin varieties such as Australian Opals. Look at the pattern and play of color, it will be tightly bunched together, and under a loop light, there will be no gaps in the pattern. Ethiopian opal boom seems relatively new, archeology shows that opals may have played a part in East African trade as early as 4000 B.C. Ethiopian opal is believed to be an emotional intensifier, enhancing the true nature of those who wear it. Some say it strengthens the will to live and shields the wearer against negativity, burning off karma.According to Holy Bible book 'Hope, happiness, love, luck, and innocence have all been linked with Opal"

The picture shows a colorful deep blue colored opal, I have some pieces like that and wanted some larger samples. What I received is white common opal, no luster at all, and no blue tinge at all. It is opal, but not precious opal, and certainly not blue. This was a rip off.

I received this as a gift and the givers were mislead by the picture. It is pretty and I love it but it's so very small. About the size of a dime and get rough. Hardly any of the natural beauty is visible.

Finally - Recieved a product that was t the size of a pea - decent enough for the price - my advice get a polishing cloth to bring out a little more color/ effect.
