The Rift Valley in Ethiopia is the primary source of Ethiopian Opal, a magnificent gemstone prized for its vivid hues and iridescent play of color. Ethiopian opal stone produces breathtaking bursts of color that can vary from flaming reds and oranges to calm blues and greens, and are frequently likened to a miniature version of the Northern Lights. Because of its unusual formation inside volcanic rock, this opal stands apart from other opals in terms of toughness and look.
Ethiopian opals, in contrast to Australian opals, frequently have a hydrophane characteristic, which allows them to absorb water and momentarily intensify or alter their hues. Ethiopian opal gemstone's kaleidoscopic brilliance and transforming visual experience attract collectors and aficionados.
