38.92-Carat Marquise Ethiopian Opal – A Rare Collectible Gem by Merkaba Jewelry

About the Item

38.92-Carat Marquise Ethiopian Opal – A Rare Masterpiece by Merkaba Jewelry Beverly Hills. A Rare Masterpiece of Nature The Ethiopian highlands have gifted the world some of the most stunning gemstones, and this 38.92-carat marquise Ethiopian Opal is no exception. Its luminous play-of-color—an interplay of fiery reds, tranquil blues, lush greens, and golden yellows—makes it a gemstone like no other. Offered unmounted and unadorned, it presents a blank canvas for collectors and jewelry enthusiasts to bring their visions to life. This exceptional gemstone embodies the brilliance of nature’s artistry, capturing the imagination with its size, clarity, and the timeless elegance of its marquise cut. As a symbol of transformation, creativity, and individuality, it’s a rare find that speaks to those who seek beauty imbued with meaning. The Symbolism Behind the Colors Each hue within this Ethiopian Opal carries profound symbolic significance, adding layers of meaning to its beauty: Fiery reds symbolize passion, courage, and vitality, inspiring the wearer to embrace boldness and strength. Greens represent growth, renewal, and harmony, aligning with prosperity and balance. Blues evoke tranquility and introspection, fostering peace and creative inspiration. Golden tones radiate warmth, success, and spiritual enlightenment, reflecting abundance and divine energy. This interplay of colors creates an ever-changing spectacle, making the gemstone feel alive and dynamic. It invites collectors to delve into its depths, discovering new facets of beauty with every glance. A Gemstone for Discerning Collectors The 38.92-carat marquise Ethiopian Opal stands out as a rare collector’s item. Its substantial carat weight, vivid play-of-color, and elegant marquise shape make it a prized addition to any gemstone collection. Ethiopian opals are renowned for their unique ability to refract light, creating an extraordinary visual display that sets them apart from other opals. The marquise cut, with its elongated form and symmetrical design, enhances the opal’s natural brilliance. This cut is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, as it draws attention to the gemstone’s vivid hues and captivating internal fire. For collectors, this gemstone represents a blend of rarity, artistry, and timeless elegance.

The Marquise Cut: A Shape of Elegance and History The marquise cut has a rich history, dating back to the 18th century when it was commissioned by King Louis XV of France to resemble the smile of his mistress, the Marquise de Pompadour. Today, this elegant shape is celebrated for its sophistication and ability to enhance a gemstone’s brilliance. For this Ethiopian Opal, the marquise cut highlights the stone’s vibrant play-of-color, creating an elongated silhouette that draws the eye and showcases the opal’s dynamic beauty. It’s a timeless choice that adds an air of refinement and artistry to any jewelry design. A Gemstone of Light and Transformation Ethiopian Opals are often described as “living gems” due to their ability to capture and transform light. This 38.92-carat masterpiece is no exception, with its vivid spectrum of colors shifting and shimmering as it interacts with light. The phenomenon of play-of-color is a visual reminder of life’s beauty, complexity, and the transformative power of nature.
