What Is Genuine Australian Opal Jewelry?
Genuine Australian opal jewelry features natural precious opals set into high quality metals. Australia is recognized globally as the premier source for precious opals. According to Geoscience Australia, the unique geological conditions in the outback create these incredible colorful gemstones. We set these natural wonders into elegant rings, pendants, and earrings designed for everyday wear.
How We Craft Our Jewelry
Unlike mass produced accessories, our team handcrafts each setting to perfectly fit the unique shape of the individual gemstone. We never use synthetic materials. We carefully select solid black opals, boulder opals, and crystal opals for their bright colors and structural integrity. Our designs often use protective bezel settings, which wrap the precious metal securely around the edges of the opal to protect it from accidental impacts.
Choosing the Right Metal
We offer our handcrafted pieces in a variety of premium metals to match your personal style and budget. You can select jewelry made from solid platinum, sterling silver coated with rhodium, or beautiful 14k and 18k solid gold. These high quality metals ensure that your piece will remain beautiful for generations.
How to Care for Your Pieces
While solid opal jewelry is durable enough for regular use, it requires gentle care to maintain its brilliant shine. You should always remove your rings before engaging in heavy physical activities. Clean your items using a soft cloth and warm water, and avoid exposing them to harsh chemical cleaners or ultrasonic cleaning machines.
