Why Australian Opals Are the Best in the World

Australian Opal Direct


 Opals are blessed with an unusual, iridescent beauty and none more so than those found in Australia. As the primary source of this sumptuous gemstone where around 95 percent of the worlds bounty is found, the Australian opal outback provides the perfect harsh, dry conditions in which opals thrive. While there are many mining towns throughout the country, the four main ones are Andamooka, Coober Pedy, Lightning Ridge and White Cliffs.


Not only are the finest opals found in Australia, but the best cutters are also located here; an essential factor in calculating their quality and ultimate worth. Other ingredients which go into determining the value of the stone are the colour play, brilliance, body tone, faults and the class of opal. Single opals are considerably more expensive than doublets or triplets which are an assembled stone which are only a small part natural opal.


Body tone refers to the shade of the opal which ranges from black through to white. The darker hues are more sought after and consequently dearer because the colour play of opals shows up better against these backgrounds. Black opals are the rarest of all, making them even more precious.

  Every woman keeps a piece of opal jewelry to reach for on special days and on special occasions. In my story I collect them and I have one interesting piece and that is an opal ruby ​​ring. There are various gemstones attached to the metal part of copper, silver and gold such as emerald, pearl, opal ring and ruby ​​that add extra meaning to the object.  Personally, I personally buy these accessories to look good but I think this is not a good idea at all.
