About Opal

Opal is a hydrated silica gemstone admired for its play-of-color, a phenomenon where flashes of rainbow colors appear as the stone is turned. Popular colors include white, black, and fire opals. Black opals are the most valuable, often with vivid internal color patterns. Opals are primarily sourced from Australia, Ethiopia, Mexico, and Brazil. Their mesmerizing colors and unique patterns make them highly sought-after in both artistic and fine jewelry.
