Welo Opal Cabochons 3 Piece Set 12.5 Total Carat Weight
A substantial three-stone set of hand-cut Ethiopian Welo opal cabochons, 12.5 carats total — enough fire for an ambitious matched design.
Welo (Wollo) opal is mined in the Ethiopian highlands and celebrated for its vivid play-of-color in reds, greens, blues, and neon hues. Each cabochon was individually cut and polished by hand, the domed shape chosen to maximize depth and brilliance. As a hydrophane opal, Welo can absorb a little moisture and change in appearance, often displaying pinfire, honeycomb, or broad-flash patterns.
