Cool Facts:
Ethiopian opal is hydrophane – it can soak up water and turn briefly transparent, then return to its colours as it dries.
The play of colour comes from tiny silica spheres stacked in a grid that split light like a prism.
The main Ethiopian deposits, in the Wollo highlands, were only found in 2008.
