About Opal Gemstones
Precious opals exhibit a dazzling play of colours on either a pale (white opal) or dark (black opal) background. Some white opals possess a translucent milky appearance, referred to as opalescence, distinct from the play of colours.
Opal Treatments
Opals may undergo various treatments, such as staining and resin impregnation, to enhance their appearance. Composite stones, like doublets and triplets, can also be fashioned from multiple pieces.
Opal Testing Techniques
Distinguishing natural opals from synthetic ones can be achieved using observation, refractometers, UV light, and specific gravity testing.
Opal Symbolism and Features
Opal, an October birthstone and Libra zodiac gemstone, has been revered throughout history. The ancient Greeks believed opals bestowed the powers of foresight and prophecy, while the Romans considered them symbols of purity and hope. With a hardness of 6, opals are among the softer and more delicate gemstones available.
