A clean 8.0-carat Ethiopian Welo opal cabochon, hand-cut to spotlight the bright, dancing fire this material is famous for. From the Welo (Wollo) region of Ethiopia, this opal shows vivid play-of-color in reds, greens, blues, and neon hues. The domed cabochon was individually cut and polished by hand to draw out the stone's depth and brilliance. Welo is a hydrophane opal, so it can absorb a little moisture and change in appearance, often revealing pinfire, honeycomb, or broad-flash patterns.
