Opals have been compared to fireworks, galaxies and even volcanoes. With their beautiful array of colours, I can see why. In Ancient Rome, it was given the name 'Opalus' , meaning 'precious stone'. Opals were seen to be more rare than diamonds or rubies due to their flashes of light and colour, as they were known to be the stone of myths and dreams.
Many different cultures believed the stone brought power, luck and health and even today, this belief still remains.
So what does it mean if someone gifts you an opal ?
Because of stone's connection with the star sign Libra, it is often related to feelings of passion, love and desire.
An enchanting asymmetrical pendant, its form determined by the huge chunk of opal that makes up its body. The opal displays excellent play of colour, with shimmering greens and deep blues punctuated by flashes of orange and red that come and go as it moves in the light. It's held in place by 53 slender claws, and features a diamond-set flower appearing to grow over the front towards the centre. Crafted in 18 karat gold and dating from the 1960s.
