Through out history, Opals have been either favored as precious stones, or thought to be harbingers of bad luck, fortunately, the latter is no longer the case. Here at Gewn's, we have a selection of fine Opals. The images below show you a rough stones, then if you activate the link, you will see a page with a finished stone of the same type. We have both rough and finished Opals at Gwen's.
The Black Opal, or Black Fire Opal is one of the most treasured
of all the Opal family. This stone is most often found in
Australia, and makes a trip "down under" a wonderful reason to
acquire several of these marvelous stones.
A Mexican Fire Opal is one of the most dynamic of the clear Opals.
Once you have held one in your hand, you will never again think of
Opals as only stones with traditional fire. These Mexican Fire
Opals will change your life forever. The cut and polished
stone is almost overpoweringly beautiful.
