Stunning 10.76 carat natural solid Australian crystal opal from Lightning Ridge, measuring 21 x 13.3 x 5.8 mm. This translucent beauty displays vibrant electric blue to purple color play with excellent cut and polish. The gem showcases gorgeous opalescence, color shift, and iridescence throughout. Sourced directly from Lightning Ridge and completely natural — no treatments or enhancements. As seen in the photos, this opal features what are known as ‘healed cracks.’ These form naturally during the opal’s creation under intense heat and pressure, when silica fills internal fractures in the potch. They’re stable and do not compromise the stone’s structural integrity, unlike typical cracks. Large, high-domed, and beautifully polished — a standout Lightning Ridge crystal opal.”** making it a rare and valuable addition to any jewelry collection.
