Coober Pedy Crystal Opal 2.1cts - Blue Green Skinny Shell 23x11mm, Black-Backed

A stunning natural crystal opal from Coober Pedy, South Australia, displaying brilliant blues and greens. This is a skinny shell opal — an exceptionally thin, naturally formed crystal opal with a translucent body that glows with colour when light passes through it.

Please note: The back of this opal has been painted black to give you an accurate preview of how it will appear once set and blackened by a jeweller. This is a common and widely accepted practice for crystal shell opals, and the painted back is clearly shown in the product photos. The opal itself is a natural solid crystal opal — no treatments to the stone.

At just 1mm thick, this stone is ideal for a bezel or rub-over setting where the jeweller can blacken the back to intensify the colour play. The 23x11mm elongated form suits a horizontal bar pendant or east-west ring setting beautifully.
