This crystal boulder opal from Queensland displays a captivating combination of bright green fire dancing across a vivid lavender blue body. The translucent quality allows electric aqua and turquoise flashes to glow from within, while the purple undertones create a mesmerizing contrast that shifts with every angle of light. The teardrop shape provides an elegant canvas for the opal's natural brilliance, with concentrated bursts of color distributed throughout the polished surface.
Measuring 10.5 x 7.5 x 2.6 mm and weighing 1.1 carats, this delicate teardrop crystal boulder opal offers charming proportions ideal for pendant necklaces, earrings, or dainty ring designs. The graceful pear shape creates a feminine silhouette that works beautifully in both modern minimalist settings and vintage inspired designs. This opal pairs wonderfully with custom jewelry settings in sterling silver for everyday bohemian pieces, or can be elevated with gold for a more refined aesthetic.
This completely natural and untreated solid opal retains its authentic ironstone backing, which provides structural stability while displaying the genuine character of Queensland crystal boulder opal. Not a doublet or triplet, this gemstone features the vibrant color intensity and translucency that make crystal boulder opals appealing to jewelry designers seeking distinctive stones at friendly price points. The bright green and lavender palette offers a unique color combination that photographs beautifully, often appearing more magenta toned in certain lighting.
As the official opal October birthstone, this gemstone represents hope, creativity, and emotional balance. The harmonious blend of cool green and warm purple tones creates an enchanting presence perfect for delicate jewelry pieces or meaningful gifts. This crystal boulder opal offers excellent value for those seeking authentic Australian gemstone quality with distinctive color at an accessible price point.
This crystal boulder opal will arrive securely packaged in an Opal Galaxy luxury gift box, ready for professional jewelry setting or safe storage.

Caring for Your Australian Opal
Opal Jewelry
Important: Opals Are Fragile Gemstones
Opals are softer than sapphires, rubies, or diamonds and will crack or chip if struck hard against solid surfaces.
Always remove opal jewelry before:
Sports or physical activities
Manual labor, gardening, or gym workouts
Household tasks where impact is possible (lifting, moving furniture, etc.)
Even a minor knock during everyday wear can cause permanent damage. Treat opals as delicate gemstones, not everyday workwear.
Cleaning Your Opal
Clean with warm water and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, or chlorine. Light exposure to hand soap or dishwashing detergent is safe.
Storage
Store opal jewelry separately from harder gemstones (diamonds, sapphires) to prevent scratching.
Solid Natural Opals
(Black, Boulder, Crystal, White Opal)
Natural solid opals are stable and won't change color or crack from water, humidity, or temperature changes. They are safe to submerge in water and can be worn daily, provided they are protected from physical impact. Solid opals are a single piece of gemstone with no artificial backing, making them ideal for heirloom quality jewelry when handled with care.
Opal Doublets
Opal doublets consist of a thin slice of natural opal bonded to a dark backing. Do not submerge doublets in water as prolonged exposure can weaken the adhesive bond and cause separation or cloudiness. Remove doublet jewelry before swimming, bathing, or washing dishes. Clean with a damp cloth only; do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners.
Like all opals, doublets are fragile and must be protected from impact.
Not sure which type you have? Solid opals show natural color throughout the stone. Doublets have a visible dark backing layer when viewed from the side.
