UNIQUE and RARE OPAL ~ 2.26 cts ~ Awesome!

Opals

All of Nature’s splendour seems to be reflected in the manifold

 opulence of fine Opals: fire and lightnings, all the colours of the rainbow

and the soft shine of far seas. Australia is the classical country of origin.

Almost ninety-five per cent of all fine opals come from the dry and remote outback deserts.

Numerous legends and tales surround this colourful gemstone, which can be traced back in its origins to a time long before our memory, to the ancient dream time of the Australian aborigines.

 It is reported in their legends that the Creator came down to Earth on a rainbow,

in order to bring the message of peace to all the humans. And at the very spot,

where His foot touched the ground, the stones became alive and started

sparkling in all the colours of the rainbow. That was the birth of the Opals.
