FAQs
What Is opal jewellery worth?
Opal jewellery's value will vary based on opal quality, size, origin, and design. Precious opals with brilliant play-of-colour are more valuable, as are those from renowned places, like Australia. Vintage pieces can also hold extra value.
What colour opal is the most expensive?
Black opals are the most expensive and valuable opal due to their dark tone with vibrant plays of colour. Their rarity and striking colours make them highly sought after by collectors, making them more expensive to purchase.
How can you tell if an opal is good quality?
High-quality opal jewellery in Australia will feature vibrant and distinct plays-of-colour. The opal should also have a smooth surface, without any cracks or scratches. Opals with vibrant colours and good transparency are considered to be the best quality and most valuable.
How do you clean opal jewellery?
Cleaning opal jewellery pieces requires gentle care to preserve its beauty. Follow these steps below.
Begin by wiping the opal with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the opal's delicate structure.
You can also occasionally clean your piece of opal jewellery using a mild soap mixed with lukewarm water. Gently scrub the opal with a soft toothbrush, and then rinse it thoroughly with water.
Once cleaned, pat it dry with a clean, lint-free cloth.
