I am not perfect ... but still 'pretty special' !!



Australian opal, especially black opal is 'very rare' ...
So rare that an opal loose like this 318K 
( showing sand spots and potch lines on its surface )

will still be high priced due to its large size, desirable shape, bright colors, high play of color and dark body tone.



For more to view, check it on YouTube

Another piece of black opal loose like this is super pretty !!!

However some buyers may say it's not so perfect due to its light body tone and unique shape,
difficult shape to set into jewelry, etc. 


Often offered by much lower price many year ago 
but not the same case today.


This black opal (semi black opal) is beautiful for its clean face, flashy pattern, strong character and large carat size, vivid colors and the color combination, its unique shape can add a bit of value for some jewelry designers!


View its prettiness on YouTube

Selecting Australian black opal can be difficult and time consuming, as they don't come around easily and the price is often high, a bit higher than what many 
people can imagine anyway.

Also since it's so precious, there's no other piece to replace 
if you miss out a chance to buy one ...

A perfect piece of black opal or not so perfect,
it all depends on how you think and see it.

I guess it's really important that you take time to examine each piece of opal and consider carefully by seeing many more and study more before you decide to buy one. 

That way, you'll love this gem for a long time.


Money can not replace its beauty, guaranteed !!!







Enjoy beautiful collection of top black opals.

OPAL - Color meaning ♪

 
 Hello from beautiful Gold Coast.


Anyone believes in a 'FORTUNE TELLER' ?!?
Well, usually I don't  ... (^^) 
 
But sometimes it's fun to think what color
would suit you and the meaning of it.
Here is some samples ♪
 
 
GREEN COLOR
  A naturalist would normally select this.
The meaning for green color is good health, lucky,
generous, harmony, envy, fresh, renew and vigor !!
It is also a symble of 'wealth' too...








BLUE COLOR
  Always attracts people with this color!
Its meaning is tranquility, calms one's mind,
brings harmony in life, trust, confidence, security,
loyalty, very peaceful and cleanliness.
 
Perhaps BLUE is one of the most popular
color selected in clothing or gemstones!!?
Australian Opal - such as black opal & boulder opal
shows vivid sky blue / ocean blue color and they're
extremely popular amongst all buyers, hehe.   ^^ 
 






MULTI COLOR
 Is not something you'd pick in general but in OPAL,
red or multi-color is quite special due to its rareness.
A busy color like this indicates success,
bravely and non-stop challenging!
You are ready to accept anything ahead of you
and not afraid of being 'different' ...
 
Does it sound like you or what??!
 






RED COLOR
  Personally, I think this color belongs to ME  (^^) !!!
It symbolizes full of energy, passion, excitement,
desire, high speed (sounds a bit dangerous?), steamy heat, aggression, violence and lots of happiness & joy!!!
A very intense and passionate color so for some people,
it might be a little too risky, too much ...
 
Australian black opal & boulder opal with 'firely red color'
is considered one of the most high prized color of all.
Beautiful & Rare ♪♪
 





 
 
WHITE COLOR
  Still many people are admiring soft colors like this today,
and its meaning for 'whitish color' will be
purity (are you pure?), simple, peace, youth,
huminity and innocence.
Often brings a good marriage, harmony and
helps with high precision.
 
 
 
 
Now you're ready to select one good opal for yourself
or for your loved ones  (^^)
Hope you enjoyed my COLOR theory!!!
 
 
***  Just for fun  ***
