A generous trio of hand-cut Ethiopian Welo opal cabochons totaling 11.5 carats, each one flickering with bright, restless color. Welo (Wollo) opal is mined in the Ethiopian highlands and known for its vivid play-of-color in reds, greens, blues, and neon hues. The cabochons were individually cut and polished by hand, the domed form chosen to maximize light dispersion and fire. Welo is a hydrophane opal, so it can absorb a little moisture and change in appearance, often revealing pinfire, honeycomb, or broad-flash patterns.
