Black opal is a rare and highly valued variety of opal, a gemstone known for its dazzling play of colors. It is characterized by its deep, dark body color, which ranges from dark gray to jet black, and is often considered the most valuable and sought-after opal variety. The term “black opal” refers to the opal’s body color, rather than its play of color, which can include a mesmerizing spectrum of hues.
Opals form when a hot silica rich solution permeates veins and voids in the ground. They are typically found in volcanic or sedimentary environments. Over a long period, the solution precipitates at low temperatures allowing the gradual formation of layers of minute silica spheres ranging from about 150 to 300nm. If an opal is made up of areas of regularly stacked, three-dimensional groups of spheres of equal size, then a combination of optical phenomena causes patches of spectral colour firing from the opal as it is tilted in the light.
Cutting and Polishing: To showcase the full potential of black opal’s play of colors, skilled lapidaries cut and polish the gemstones into various shapes, such as ovals, rounds, and cabochons. The goal is to maximize the exposure of the colorful play while retaining the natural beauty of the stone.
Use in Jewelry: Black opals are highly prized for their use in fine jewelry, such as rings, pendants, earrings, and necklaces. Their unique and striking appearance makes them a favorite choice for creating statement pieces. They are often set in precious metals like gold or platinum to enhance their beauty further.
Spiritual and Healing Beliefs: In some cultures and belief systems, opals, including black opals, are thought to possess spiritual and healing properties. They are believed to enhance emotional well-being, creativity, and positive energy, promoting a sense of hope and balance.
