The Jewel Creation on Instagram: "The Ethiopian opal absorbed water, becoming more transparent and enhancing its play-of-color—a characteristic of its hydrophane nature. In contrast, the Australian opal remained unchanged, showcasing its stable structure. This transformation in Ethiopian opals is temporary and reversible as they dry. Always handle your opals with care, especially the hydrophane varieties! #ethiopianopal #australianopal #gemstone #opals #gemstonelover"
