Opal is a radiant stone. Some of the beautiful colors of opal bracelets we offer are white, blue, and pink. These stones have always been popular, it is not something new, they were also very popular and highly regarded amongst the ancient Greeks, and they considered the stone to be as precious as diamonds. Greeks were not the only ones to use it; the Romans also used opal to create jewelry.

You're probably wondering what this magnificent stone is and what it is made from. Well, it is a non-crystalline form of the mineral that is called silica. Our opal bracelets can be made with precious or manmade stones. The first type is the precious variety; they do not have an internal structure and are made up of silica spheres. These silica spheres can create internal colors that interfere with light passing through the microstructure of the stone thus giving it the iridescent look that we see.

The irregularity of the sizes and packing of the spheres is what determines that actual quality of these precious stones. Since the discovery of the ordered structure of opals, science has provided us with knowledge and ability to create manmade stones. In our catalog we feature many manmade examples in our bracelets as well as our other Native American Jewelry and southwest jewelry.
