White opal is distinguished by its pale, milky body tone, which provides a luminous backdrop that makes its play-of-colour appear to glow from within. The green and pinky blue colour palette of this stone is among the most sought-after in white opal, evoking the colours of the Australian sky and sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 0.5 carats, this cabochon is perfectly sized for a delicate pendant, a fine ring setting, or earrings.

Store in a padded box or wrap in a slightly damp cloth for long-term storage. Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, steam, and harsh chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MILBO LAGS Jewellery and Gems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53016024252736,"sku":"53016024252736","price":300.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/4238\/5472\/files\/17865293143078755900448513673912.jpg?v=1786529363","url":"https:\/\/milbolags.myshopify.com\/products\/australian-white-opal-cabochon-0-5ct-coober-pedy","provider":"MILBO LAGS Jewellery and Gems and Fossils","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
