Product Details
Choose from 2gm, 3gm or 5gm pieces
Vivid Play-of-Color: Witness the hallmark Welo "fire"—dazzling flashes of red, green, blue, and orange that dance across the stone as you move it in the light.
Lapidary Ready: Ideal for cutting and polishing into high-quality cabochons or faceted gemstones.
100% Natural: Directly sourced from the Wollo Province and free from artificial treatments.
Hydrophane Nature: Welo Opals are naturally porous. They may temporarily lose their color flash when wet, but it will return once the stone is fully dried.
Important Note for Buyers:
As rough material, pieces may contain matrix, natural fissures, or small inclusions. The listed weight and dimensions refer to the raw stone as-is.
