Real Ethiopian Opal gemstone guide

[@rnrcyberpicker]

Wow 😮 my favorite gemstone opals…did not see this much opals in room 😮❤

[@goldsilverandiamonds]

Amazing! What a selection. I'd like to see some jewelry made with some of these gemstones. The 45.00 a carat tray. Had some larger ones that could be made into nice pendants. I like the combination of diamonds and opals in jewelry. What a kind and generous dealer!!

[@ConcepcionManzanero-k5n]

Wow very nice gemstone...... from Philippines

[@slikvisuals1401]

Dope video, did you happen to get the contact info for that Opal dealer

[@W.MOpals]

Insightful! Thanks for sharing :)

[@tommyvicecity]

I really wanna buy an opel ring. Do you have any recommendations that ship to the United States?

[@kertbert1]

Your best best is to buy an opal and take the stone to a jewelry repar shop and have them make you a ring that you design yourself. I'm an Ethiopian opal dealer living in Canada who married an Ethiopian born in Dessie whom I met while she was selling her opals.

[@teshometigabu5655]

[@richellepaks]

[@rubyholiday7880]

I like Australian opal but African oppo easy to fracture

[@______IV]

Australian opal is MUCH MORE prone to fracture/crazing than Ethiopian Welo/Wallo opal. Plus if you drop an Australian opal onto hard ground, you’ll instantly have a bunch of broken pieces of opal. If you drop Ethiopian opal onto hard ground, it doesn’t even scratch. Each stone has pluses and minuses though.

The shop you are in do the sell to the people looking for that opal and do you have there site to go to

[@idrisabdella4814]

Thanks for sharing i wish you visit us here in delanta. You are welcome here 🎉🎉

[@peacefulandpretty2372]

Can you do a video on why it costs so much to have a stone cut? There are tourist mines you can mine your own amethyst, topaz, sapphire, etc. But getting the $40 raw crystal cut is $3,000. Why?

[@rubyholiday7880]

I bought African Opel but it's crack and change colours quickly

[@lv-home2545]

omg beautiful

[@y0kozuna]

Indonesian opal it's the same characteristic with Australian opal, even the price almost the same, very expensive. I'm Indonesian but my wello opal collection double than my Indonesian opal ( kalimaya )

[@ElderPinto254]

[@rickypizanis]

[@Eski-d3f]

I am from ethiopia

[@hr-sp]

the prices he gave you are proper high broski

[@adunputraa]

Opal i think one of the most difficult gemstone to capture in photos and videos 😅

[@drinsouthwestWA]

Again the pricing is over the top, i get for $20-30 per carat from a trusted supplier, so go with that and bargain harder. Good quality though. But look at the volume, its not rare at all to get good fire in the finished stones.

[@classicalaid1]

If stones aren't gem or museum quality you tend to dismiss them. If they were as worthless as you repeatedly suggest, why do so many dealers carry them? Not everyone is quality obsessed the way you and I are.

[@rebel1150]

overpriced, in india u will pay 80% less then in Bkk... the same quality

[@fayaazalibhai4665]

Yah afcourse you have never seen something like this you have never left Germany

[@gheart8278]

Hate to burst your ego, but as a dealer for over 25 years that's an impressive collection. The amount of Alexandrite is equally impressive for those who know, just sayin.

[@fayaazalibhai4665]

@@gheart8278 are you high

[@gheart8278]

Snap! It crackled then popped!! So the saying goes! Pay more for a stable Australian or even better a Brazilian Opal due to hardness and stability if you can find one. It's become the rare, not finding much in 20 years.

[@idrisabdella4814]

@gheart8278 I don't know why you underestimate Ethiopian opal yes the are few stone have unstable issues but there are a lot stable like something. Pls 🙏 let's talk with knowledge and experience. My god see the colour it's amazing

[@gheart8278]

@@idrisabdella4814 it's similar to opal from Nevada. Very unstable material, I'm sorry if you've invested in the material. I actually purchased one of the first pieces in Tucson 20 years or so ago. I am an Opal expert/dealer for over 30 years, It is incredible material, but honestly It scares me and I've avoided it like the plague. I'm sure some is stable if you enjoy gambling. Do your homework on hardness/origin. Hope this helps.

[@ChandraHera]

For trash Australia crack opals? Lol Everyone know Australian opals couldn't wear under heat sun, risks 99% CRACK

[@jamesanagnos6123]

the GIA did a test with all opals to see what opals were the most tough, they dropped opals from 1.5 meters on cement and every opal cracked accept for welo opal so suck on that aussies

[@jamesanagnos6123]

[@KUmnegerWendinhunegn]
