Crystal Opal from Aussie Opals Direct

Black OpalCrystal Opal


Transparent or translucent opal is defined as crystal and here the colors are sharp and visible below the surface. Crystal opals come in all color variations and display bright colors. Crystal opals can be either light or dark and are solid.

Crystal opal is clear enough to see through against a light surface but when viewed on a dark surface the colours really spring to life. In terms of value, the more transparent the stone is, the more it is worth.

About Opal
Opal is one of the few precious gemstones in the world and is Australia's national gemstone. Today over 90% of the world's precious opal is mined from what once used to be a vast inland sea in central Australia.
