GEMSTONE GEMSTONE

Australian opals make up 95% of the world’s mined opals. All opals are beloved for their whimsical, kaleidoscopic colors; the word opal comes from the Latin opallios- this describes a person’s ability to perceive the changing of colors.
Origins: Australia
MOHs Hardness: 5.5-6.5
Care: All opals are fragile like glass: be extra careful to avoid abrasive surfaces, and avoid knocking your opal against hard surfaces. Extreme temperature shifts can cause cracks. To keep your opal clean, use warm water with mild soap and a soft toothbrush or cloth. Do not use a steam cleaner or ultrasonic cleaner.
