Take your love of blue to the max. While delicate and soft spoken in size, this Boulder Opal brings blue to life in some many ways. Let it bring you to life too!
It comes on a sterling silver 18” chain.
This is a one of a kind item.
Myths of misfortune started long ago, as mentioned above. Sir Walter Scott's novel, Anne of Geierstein, has the Baroness dying when her opal loses its color. This is fiction, not real life.
It's also been speculated that dealers of diamonds and other gemstones spread false rumors to protect their market share.
I was born in March. Some of my customers have October birthdays, but most do not.
Opals are 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, harder than turquoise, which is 5 to 6 on that scale. I wouldn't consider that delicate or fragile.
I have personally worn opals in the shower, doing housework and other tasks and have never had a problem with any opal.
I would avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and hitting them directly on hard surfaces and will serve you fine.
I live in Wisconsin where winters very easily get below zero and I have never had any problems with any opal. I wear my opals in winter and have never had an opal damaged by the cold.
I also tested all of my varieties in the freezer for two weeks, again, no damage even when I warmed them quickly in my hands.
Out of the Blue Ethiopian Opal Bracelet
The color and the quality of the bracelet I bought are great. Apparently my daughter and granddaughter agree because all three of us are sharing, taking turns wearing it!
Light and Shiny Mexican Opal Earrings
The Mexican Opal earrings I have from her are really nice. I love the shape and color. I've also found great gifts from the Ethiopian Opal Collection. The rainbow designs make such great gifts.
