Asterism, Adularescence, Aventurescence, Chatoyancy - Cat's eye effect, Iridiscence, Labradorescence, Play of Color, Change of Color, Opalescence and Orient.

If you are interested in knowing why these effects occur and what they are, be sure to visit our blog about: Optical Effects in Colored Gemstones.

Koroit Boulder Opal 3.26 ct from Australia. Cabochon cut. Free form. I love the Koroit Opal with its intricate patterns, the precious opal embedded in the matrix fascinates me. In this case, the opal is the size of a pill with a very similar rounded shape, and no matter which side you are looking at, it is fascinating in any of them, its blue, red, green and lilac veins do not stop moving under the light. Just amazing.
