An Opalily Exclusive Piece

Fantasy From Eden

Opalily has overseen the entire process start to finish of this one-off piece.

An electric and passionate gemstone showcasing beautiful dancing light beams serenading the surface with dazzling gold, oranges and greens.

Firstly retrieving the stone from the mine in Winton, to getting an amazing professional finish at the cutting bench, to the jeweller, to the stone setter and to now being available to be purchased.

(Pre-Polished stone)

During the design stage with opals, something that is really important to consider is the direction of light, and the impact that has on the play of colour.

Most stones have a 'sweet spot' of better direction. As you can from the two images above, the stone appears with much more colourful fire on the vertical axis, in comparison to the horizontal axis.

This is generally how we decide if something will be a ring stone or pendant/earring stone, as well as which way it will face.

(Polished stone)

This gemstone packs a glamorous punch!

Colours as vibrant as those displayed in this opal are always extremely desirable.

🫧To honour the stone's individual energy, powerful colour and unique light attributes

🫧To create a safe and protective casing around the stone so that it can be worn for multiple generations

🫧To artfully frame this Australian gemstone with love
