About Crystal Opal

Crystal opal is distinguished by its transparent or semi-transparent body tone — unlike white or black opal, light passes through the stone, creating a three-dimensional depth of colour that appears to glow from within. This transparency amplifies the play-of-colour, making crystal opal among the most sought-after and valuable opal varieties. The combination of orange, blue/purple, and green in a single stone is particularly rare and desirable, representing a broad spectral range that shifts dramatically with light and viewing angle.

Jewellery Ready

This cabochon is professionally polished and ready to be set directly into a ring, pendant, brooch, or earring. At 1.15 carats, it is an ideal centrepiece for a fine, bespoke jewellery commission.

Care Instructions

Opal contains water and should be protected from extreme heat, prolonged dryness, and sudden temperature changes. Store in a padded box. Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, steam, and harsh chemicals.
