The magic of opal captured in a rough nugget
The most beautiful thing about opals is their uniqueness. Although the stones are sold in their raw state, every piece in our batch clearly displays opalescence. Simply rotate the stone in your hand under a light source to see its interior come alive, shimmering with fiery reflections of red, green, blue, or yellow. The lack of a cut means that each nugget has a unique shape and natural texture, which gives it immense, wild charm.
We include an elegant protective box with every opal you purchase. It protects the stone from scratches and dust, and the transparent lid allows you to admire the incredible play of colors on your shelf at home without having to constantly take the stone out of the box. It also makes for a perfect, ready-to-give elegant gift for any fan of nature’s unique treasures.
Purchase Information
The photos in our gallery show sample specimens from the prepared batch. Since opals are a work of nature, individual pieces differ from one another in shape, structure, and the dominant colors of their opalescence. When you buy from us, however, you have a full guarantee that you will receive a carefully selected, natural stone ranging in size from 10 to 20 mm that will delight you with its visible and distinct play of light.
