Lily

Lead Curator

I began like many opal enthusiasts – captivated by an irresistible allure. Opal fever, as it's known, is a real and consuming passion.

On a family holiday fossicking in Lightning Ridge, I uncovered my first opal: a vibrant green-blue flash between an otherwise ordinary sandstone. This moment ignited an undeniable desire for more. I soon left my day job, driven by a magnetic pull towards a life filled with colour and beauty.

My journey led me to Central West Queensland, where I immersed myself in the wonderful world of Boulder Opal. Moving to Winton and working with an experienced opal miner provided me with invaluable knowledge and hands-on experience in every aspect of opal artistry – from mining and sourcing to cutting, polishing, and setting.

Thus, the story of Opalily had begun...
