Queen of Shewa AAA0101001: The Digital Heritage Edition
The Story of a Digital Legacy
In the early days of the new millennium, long before the blockchain became a household name, a remarkable stone surfaced from the ancient, rugged terrains of Shewa, Ethiopia. On January 1, 2005, a milestone was etched into the history of OpalShow through a single piece of correspondence—a moment that would eventually help define our journey in the gemstone world.
This stone, christened the “Queen of Shewa,” was more than just a mineral; it was a testament to the raw, untamed beauty of Ethiopian earth. It represented the beginning of a lifelong mission to bridge the gap between the hidden treasures of the Horn of Africa and the global stage.
Today, over two decades later, we are immortalizing that history.
