Designing more for solid, Australian opal !!

When creating design for an opal, 

you don't need to add too much of other gems 

and heavy details ... I believe it's better for an opal to 

be designed simple and get the right angle.

That's most important.

Australian black opal, boulder opal does not 

come around easy so respect an opal and 

design something really nice. 

Don't you think so?

Another 'top gem' from Australia - boulder opal.

Our new opal collection from Queensland, Australia.

(^^)

http://www.opal-direct.com

Definitely a solid (guaranteed !!) top range, 

amazingly pretty and sexy, has great proportion, 

just the right size for 

any jewelry ...

Incredibly bright all over the face, 

showing "rainbow color" with vivid "top red" 

and has large, mixed patterns will add more 

value for sure.  

Who wouldn't want to have or to see 

a precious gem like this ?!?

Believe it or not, this quality can only 

be found in Australia ... in a limited place 

like Queensland, Quilpie.

Perhaps you can read / study a little bit about 

this amazing gemstone from our website.

Now, it's time to think ...

My mission is to express the beauty of 

Australian black opal & boulder opal to the opal 

admire around the world.

Introducing this gem as natural loose stone 

(usually polished, ready to set in the jewelry) ...

Or use my creativity and make a nice, 

original opal jewelry for men & women !!

Which item should I make this time, 

with this yummy looking opal ?

A gorgeous ring ?

A brooch ??

A pendant ???

Or ... just leave it for a while and 

let my client's to decide ?

I can not wait to put my hands on, it's too pretty !!

If you have great suggestions, let me know and 

we'll think together, haha.

BRAVO, AUSTRALIAN GEM !!!!

How would you describe the beauty of this ..... ?!?

It's just too difficult isn't it !!
You can see how beautiful it looks, the clarity (clearness) is so fine, lots of colors to match with your dresses and shoes.... reasonably a large size (5.05ct) to make into any item you wish for...and the best part is it is "ONE AND ONLY" ...

It's not just about how beautiful this piece is, but it's also about how "SPECIAL" Australian quality Black Opal is !!!!



An imaginable beauty...

That's what they are.
No wonder some people will call this gemstone a "RAINBOW STONE" because it has all the color you wish for....


What a GEM.....   (^^)

Trip to Lightning Ridge

Last month, I visited the Black opal field "Lightning Ridge" !!!

It was my second time to go there and I took 4 guests from Japan to show the field.

First time to get in a propeller plane!!

We headed to a very famous touristic place in Lightning Ridge, "an opal cave museum",  soon after our arrival.

The founder of the museum, Ron, is an opal miner in Lightning Ridge and also an artist.

There are a lot of  paints on the wall and figures in the cave, which Ron was actually used to mine for Black opal.

He did all the paintings and carving by himself little by little, when there's a spare moment of his work.

He didn't expect that the cave would be a touristic place, he just loves what he does!!

It was good to see you again, Ron!!

Next destination was Grawin, where is 40km away from the main town and one of the most active field in Lightning Ridge.

We visit here, to see my friend, KEN!!


He organized a cutting demonstration and also took us to his cave.

Always smile,calm and kind...

Thank you sooo much Ken!!

It was only a day trip, but it recalled to my mind how people love mining opals and how hard to find a good one I really appreciate that I can introduce such a precious gemstones!!

Thank you everyone I met in Ridge, hope to see you again soon!!

New arrival!!

Christmas is coming soon!!
Have you already decided a X'mas gift to your loved one?

It would be a great idea for you to celebrate X'mas with an opal gift :)
Most of opals we have are one and only. They have unipue characters in a modern design so they would be "everyday jewellery".

This is one of our new item, Solid Australian Boulder Opal Silver Pendant $660.

Beautiful blue and green on a natural ironstone.

It has a very simple design, however, will show its facination so well :)

Visit our website to see more opals!!!

I wish all of you to have a lovely time!!
