The story: Among the most fascinating and mysterious gems, opal holds a special place. Known since ancient times, it was already admired by the Romans, who considered it a symbol of hope and purity, while the Greeks attributed it the power of clairvoyance. Its name comes from the Sanskrit upala, meaning “precious stone”. But it is in Australia, now the world’s main deposit, that opal reveals all its magic: an infinite palette of colors, iridescent and moving, as if captured in the light. Long surrounded by legends, sometimes a lucky charm, sometimes a bewitching stone, it is now associated with creativity, intuition and self-expression.
