Collection: Solid Opal

Solid opal refers to a type of opal made entirely of opal material rather than a composite of different materials. The diffraction of light creates the colours in opal as it passes through the tiny spheres of silica that make up the stone. Solid opal is composed entirely of these minuscule spheres, which gives it its characteristic colour and iridescence. Jewellery makers and collectors highly prize solid opal because it is considered the gemstone's purest and most valuable form.

Solid opal is a beautiful and unique gemstone highly prized for its beauty and value. Solid opal is often cut and polished into cabochons- rounded or oval-shaped gems with a smooth, polished surface. These cabochons are then set into jewellery pieces, such as rings, earrings, pendants, and brooches.
