Known as a desert jewel, Ethiopian opal stone captivates with its vivid array of hues. Because they are hydrophane and formed by past volcanic action, these opals absorb water, which intensifies their brilliant colors. Their distinctive "play-of-color" phenomenon—a stunning kaleidoscope of reds, greens, blues, and oranges that shimmer under light—is what sets them apart. These gems are renowned for their profound affinity for emotional healing and creativity.
