Hyalite opals commonly available in the market are mostly from Mexico, but this piece is from Hungary, a rare find that GTJ first introduced to the market after obtaining an appraisal certificate for its new origin.

This piece comes with an appraisal certificate from the Japan-Germany Gemmological Laboratory, including a report on its origin, making it highly recommended for collections as a rare piece from a specific location.

Another attractive feature is that while hyalite opals are generally perceived as being small, this piece allows you to enjoy a substantial size of over 1 carat.

A table cube cut is applied around the table, creating a box shape, but in this piece, the cube cut is applied in two stages instead of the usual one.

Furthermore, it is a rare piece where the cube cut is also applied to the pavilion side.

The flower cut on the culet also has double the usual number of facets, making it a very elaborate piece.

In addition to GTJ's original cut, a highly skilled cut has been applied, making this a very valuable piece that could serve as a sample for cutting techniques.

Although extremely small, bubble-like inclusions can be seen under a loupe, they are not visible to the naked eye and hardly noticeable, highlighting the beauty of the crystal structure.

Hyalite opals fluoresce due to their uranium content, and this piece exhibits very strong fluorescence, subtly changing to green when exposed to sunlight.

The intricate growth lines, resembling patterns, show a dynamic fluorescent reaction like a shimmering aurora, captivating the viewer as the piece is tilted.

In addition to the intricate cut and impressive size, this piece is a perfect example of hyalite opal's charm, allowing you to fully enjoy its strong fluorescence and the beauty of its growth lines.

Each piece is one-of-a-kind due to the unique growth lines, fluorescent reactions, and variations in cut and size.

The value of hyalite opal increases year by year, and we hope you will take this opportunity to enjoy this piece, a masterpiece created by the earth and artisans, combining strong fluorescence with a rare origin and GTJ's refined cut.
