Pink Opal is a natural, pink colored, semi-precious gemstone of the Silicate mineral family. It ranges from light pink to deep reddish pink color. Unlike precious opals, it lacks the rainbow-like play of color and is admired for its subtle pink hue and brilliant shine. It is a good healing gemstone that rules the ‘Heart Chakra’ and helps the individual to gain emotional and spiritual satisfaction. It is also considered beneficial for the wearer’s skin, lung and heart health. Being a highly affordable natural gemstone, pink opal is highly preferred gemstone for jewellery that brings along numerous healing benefits.
Note: Buyers Beware! These days, the markets are full of cheap, lab created pink opal that doesn’t bear any astrological significance. These synthetic pink opals are often sold by fancy names like neon pink opal or pink fire opal to draw the attention of the buyers. It is always important to buy pink opal original stone only from the reputed gem stores, retailer and suppliers who provide a genuine lab certificate (GIA, IGI, GRS, GII, AIGS etc) to get the best value for money.
