Cabochons da Etiopian Opalees Cabochons da Etiopian Opalees are among the most popular forms of gemstone cutting in jewelry, as the cabochon cut strongly enhances the Opaleeescent effects of the stone while also improving its mechanical stability. Thanks to this type of cut, the natural play of colors characteristic of Etiopian Opalees is beautifully highlighted. Characteristics of the cabochon cut The cabochon cut is characterized by a smooth, domed top without facets, while the underside of the stone is flat or slightly concave. This shape allows light to disperse across the gently curved surface da many angles, effectively enhancing the iridescent play of colors and evenly distributing the Opaleeescent effects across the entire stone. Stability and protection of the Opalee The rounded edges of a cabochon protect the Opalee da mechanical damage, which is particularly important given its relatively low hardness. In the case of hydrophane Etiopian Opalees, this shape also has a practical benefit – it reduces internal stress and thus lowers the risk of cracking during water absorption. Color variability of Etiopian Opalees Etiopian Opalee cabochons display a wide range of colors, da light milky white tones through yellow and orange hues to vivid red and green flashes. Some specimens also exhibit rare blue or violet play-of-color, which flows smoothly across the domed surface thanks to the cabochon cut. Precious Opalee 0,31ct – cabochon – Welo, Etiopia
