OPAL
Opal
The defining feature of opal is the "play-of-color" that changes its appearance depending on how the light hits it. It's a mysterious phenomenon caused by the orderly arrangement of particles in the opal and the moisture contained within the stone. A complex blend of shimmering reds, oranges, yellows, greens, and blues. The reason it is called "a gemstone that enhances creativity" may be that its many expressions stimulate the imagination.
Opals are somewhat delicate gemstones.
・Opal is a soft gemstone. Please avoid using an ultrasonic cleaner. (Mohs hardness: 5–6.5)
・Avoid storing in direct sunlight, as it is prone to drying out.
・Soaking in water may cause changes in quality. Please avoid using it while bathing.
