THE GEMSTONE OPAL
The Opal's splendid play of colour is unsurpassed, and fine examples can even be more valuable than Diamonds.
The intensity and distribution of the colour flashes is a determining factor in the value of an Opal.
There are many varieties of precious Opals:
The most desired and beautiful is the Black Opal, which has a dark blue, dark green, or black background with a strong play of colour. Black Opal is the most valuable form of Opal.
White Opal is a light coloured body colour with strong play of colour.
Fire Opal, or Mexican Fire Opal is a transparent to translucent deep-orange red form of Opal.
Harlequin Opal is one of the rarest and most prized.
