jewelry.Opal gemstones have so many shapes and sizes that they are perfect for all kinds of
jewelry. Rings, earrings, necklaces and bracelets are perfect for everyone, no matter what
they are made of. Opal jewelry comes in different types and styles. What we mean by 'types'
is that at least three types of opal gemstones are found in three basic areas outside of
Australia. South Australia, NSW and Queensland. But this is not a geography lesson. The
enchanting and rare gem has been dubbed 'opal', which according to historians means
'change of color'.
The first type of opal was the boulder opal and was in the northeastern part of the country in
the state of Queensland.So that this article does not go too far, we will try to focus on this
particular unique opal as it applies to necklaces, and leave the discussion of white opal,
crystal opal and black opal for another time.As the name implies, boulder opals are often
found in very large and quite small boulder iron rocks, depending on the field. When Opal
Mine removes these rocks from the soil, he carefully chips towards the rocks to find the thin
veins of color that are scattered in the mother iron rocks.Since the boulder opal is the
toughest of all opals. So with the help of large diamond saws, the precious opal is slowly
released from the matrix and all sorts of amazing colors and patterns are revealed as the
diamond grinding teeth are emptied over the colored veins. The metaphor of nature is often
seen before your eyes.These are often described as 'picture stone' opals so that patterns
such as the opening of the veins of the opals often appear in interesting images. Some of
which are similar to recognized objects such as clouds, trees, animals, marine animals. At
other times the pictures are like an abstract oil painting.Since this color needs to be salvaged
as much as possible, boulder opals are often cut in free shape instead of fixed shapes such
as oval, rectangular or square. This means that the necklace or ring designer is presented
with something outside of the jewelry ‘norm’ and can often come up with a very unique style,
creating ‘one of a kind’ pieces.So decorating your decor opal jewelry necklace will draw
attention to some unknown in the past history. And as your body moves, you will notice the
‘color change’ that is known for opal because it reflects some or all of the colors of nature’s
rainbow. The science behind it is extraordinary. In future articles we will go into more detail
about how light from the sun splits into different colors as we hit the minute spheres on the
surface of this natural phenomenon.
