Sterling Silver Ethiopian Opal 8x10mm Oval Necklace

This genuine Ethiopian opal gemstone is set in a sterling silver bezel setting with decorative silver work on the bail. Pendant is 3/4 inch long and 3/8 inch wide and comes on an 18 inch long silver cable chain. Ethiopian opals have a relatively recent but significant history in the gemstone world. These opals were first discovered in 1994 in the Shewa Province of Ethiopia, though they gained global recognition in 2008 after large, high-quality deposits were found in the Wollo Province. The Wollo opals, in particular, are known for their remarkable play-of-color and durability, often rivaling Australian opals, which had long dominated the market. To clean: simply use a jewelry polishing cloth to brighten the silver when needed.
