Opals are nature's fireworks, with flashes of color that burst and dance before your eyes
The word "opal" is believed to derive its meaning from the Sanskrit word "उपल", meaning "jewel", and the Greek word "Opallios," meaning "change of color." It is a highly sought-after gemstone known for featuring a unique play of colors, with white being the most popular color around the world. This fantastic gemstone displays a color range varying from white to black, with every color spectrum of the rainbow possible in between. This distinctive play of colors in opal occurs due to the diffraction of light that interacts with the microstructure of the stone, offering a perfect canvas for gem cutters and jewelry designers to create ravishing masterpieces. Opal’s breathtaking iridescence is a treat to the eyes, and it looks stunning in any form or shape, be it an opal ring, opal necklace, opal earring, opal pendant, opal bangle, or other opal jewelry set. Other than their apparent beauty, opals are known to possess metaphysical properties. In the middle ages, opal stone jewelry was worn to promote creativity, enhance confidence, and encourage positive emotions.
The radiance and brilliance of the opal have attracted royal kings, priests, and celebrities for years. Their captivating play of colors made opal jewelry a favorite of the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley, Andy Warhol, Empress Josephine of France, and many more. This amazing attribute has made opal Stone a favorite of gemstone jewelers. These coveted gemstones replenish class and elegance when mounted in any jewelry form- be it an Opal Rings, opal necklace, Opal Bracelets, and opal Earrings.
The global emergence of including unique and rare gemstones in wardrobes, be it for a magazine shoot, a red carpet walk, or a high-class cocktail party, has increased the market demand for coveted gemstones like opal. As a result, the production of this precious gem has depleted worldwide, making its price rise by up to 15% in the last few decades (according to Australian opal cutters).
However, market demand is just one component of determining the overall price of opal jewelry. Some other popular anecdotal factors that contribute in deciding genuine opal jewelry prices include its origin, color, brightness of fire, fire pattern, clarity, and transparency level. The other grading factors for white opal stone jewelry depend on the metal used and the complexity of the design. The more intricate a design, the higher it is priced. A jewelry item with a simple shape would always cost less than the one with a complicated design.
