Dark Opal Description:

Black/Dark Opal is the most prized and valuable variety of opal, known for its intense play-of-colour set against a dark or black body tone. This dramatic contrast creates a striking and mesmerizing visual effect, making black opal one of the most coveted gemstones in the world. Here’s a detailed breakdown of black opal:

Origin

Black opals are primarily mined in Lightning Ridge, New South Wales, Australia, the world’s most famous source for this gemstone. The opals from this region are renowned for their quality and depth of colour.

Uses in Jewellery

Black opal is highly prized for luxury jewellery pieces, including rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. Its durability (Mohs hardness of 5.5–6.5) makes it suitable for occasional wear but requires careful handling to avoid scratches or damage.
