The Stone:
What is it about opals? Perhaps the appeal lies in the fact that opals are rainbows you can hold in your hands, wear at your neckline, drop from your ears and wrap around your wrists.

Opals, with their lively colors, match everything and anything. Red, green, yellow, blue, orange, pink … opals have it all. And they love to show off.

At their most alluring, opals represent a gathering of elusive rainbows that flash, sparkle and hide in an unending dance. Almost ethereal, opals have a cool inner light that scatters from the heart of each stone — the perfect backdrop for soft splashes of blue, whispers of yellow, occasional pops of pink, green, orange and red.

What is it about opals? They are spectacular stones with haunting beauty, interior rainbows, and/or fascinating fern-like inclusions. Opals are true masterpieces from Mother Nature.

Australian opals are considered amongst the finest mined anywhere. Australia and opals are forever linked. Jewelry lovers know that, for superior quality, choose opals mined in Australia.

Australia mines more opals than any other nation in the world. And not just conventional opals — as if there is anything conventional about this beguiling stone. Currently, Lightning Ridge in Australia is the only place in the world where black opals are mined.
