About This Collection

Blue Opal is a hydrated amorphous form of silica, meaning unlike most gemstones it does not have a crystalline structure. Its soft blue colour ranges from pale sky blue to deeper teal and is caused by the scattering of light through its silica structure combined with trace mineral inclusions. Peruvian Blue Opal is among the most well known variety, prized for its opaque to translucent soft blue-green hues. Opal forms when silica-rich water seeps into cracks and cavities in rock and slowly evaporates, depositing layers of silica spheres over millions of years. Its water content, which can range from 3 to 21 percent, gives it a unique sensitivity to temperature and humidity changes.
