About Opal Gemstones

Precious opals exhibit an extraordinary play of colours against a pale (white opal) or dark (black opal) background. Some white opals present a translucent milky appearance, referred to as opalescence, which is distinct from the play of colours.

Opal Treatments

Opals can undergo various treatments, such as staining and resin impregnation, to enhance their appearance. Additionally, composite stones like doublets and triplets may be crafted from multiple pieces.

Methods for Opal Testing

To distinguish between natural and synthetic opals, observation, refractometers, UV light, and specific gravity measurements can be employed.

Opal Symbolism and Qualities

Opal, a birthstone for October and a zodiac gemstone for Libra, has been highly esteemed since ancient times. The Greeks believed opals endowed foresight and prophecy, while the Romans saw them as symbols of purity and hope. With a hardness of 6, opals are softer and more fragile than many other gemstones.
