About Opal Gemstones
Precious opals are renowned for their vibrant play of colours on either a pale (white opal) or dark (black opal) background. Some white opals exhibit a translucent milky appearance, which is referred to as opalescence and is distinct from the play of colours.
Opal Treatments
Opals can undergo various treatments, such as staining and resin impregnation, to enhance their appearance. Composite stones, like doublets and triplets, can also be crafted from multiple pieces.
Opal Testing Techniques
Methods such as observation, refractometers, UV light, and specific gravity testing can be employed to differentiate natural opals from synthetic ones.
Opal Symbolism and Characteristics
Opal, an October birthstone and a Libra zodiac gemstone, has a rich history of symbolism. Ancient Greeks believed opals granted foresight and prophecy, while Romans associated them with purity and hope. With a hardness of 6, opals are among the softer and more delicate gemstones available.
