Black Opal is a gorgeous stone that displays beautiful multicolored effects. It is widely available as treated black opal which undergoes a smoke treatment to bring out its color. This opal is often produced or mined in Ethiopia.
The smoking process deepens the color of the Opal and enhances the play of color. It is made to appear closer to Lightning Ridges Opal through this process. The Ethiopian Black Opal is a great value gemstone with a masculine appearance and therefore an affordable alternative to Untreated Black Opal.

What Colors can Black Opal Display?
The exciting part of this question is the answer to it which is all colors; however, we do tend to see some uniformity to the stones as they tend to lean more to green, red, purple, or yellow, etc. Some Black Opals are almost entirely black with only a flare of colors while others can appear with the base hues we’ve mentioned above. Some of the stones appear speckled or even marbled.

What is 'Lightning Ridge Black Opal?'
Natural and Untreated Black Opal is one of the most valuable Opals that exists. It is an incredibly rare, and incredibly expensive for that reason.
