3 pcs Opal - 2.44 ct - Instituto Gemólogico Español (IGE)

Opals are captivating gemstones known for their unique play-of-color, which displays shifting rainbow hues when viewed from different angles. The 3 pieces of opal totaling 2.44 carats certified by the Instituto Gemológico Español (IGE) suggest these stones have been examined for quality and authenticity by a respected Spanish gemological institute. Opals are primarily formed from hydrated silica and can show a variety of colors depending on their internal structure. Their visual appeal ranges from translucent to opaque with fiery flashes of reds, blues, greens, and other colors. Opals are often used in all types of jewelry due to their distinctive beauty but require careful handling as they are softer and more porous than many other gemstones.
