This opal is from Lightning Ridge, Australia. • This is a very beautiful and valuable piece, I absolutely love it. Australian Opal is well known world-wide to produce some of the most incredible precious opal in the world. • The term “crystal opal” refers to any kind of opal (i.e. black opal, white opal, semi-black opal) which has a transparent, translucent, or semi-translucent body. If light is able to pass through the stone, or you can see through an opal, then you are probably looking at a crystal opal. Crystal opals can display any colour of the spectrum in a beautiful play of colour. The clarity and transparency of a crystal opal often enhances the appearance of the colour and therefore gives the stone a higher value than a standard opaque stone. • Black opals from Lightning Ridge are among the most prized gems in the world. Lightning Ridge is renowned as the home of Australia's black opal - a stunning and captivating type of opal that features a dark, or black, body tone and a vibrant rainbow of hues from brilliant red, fiery orange and neon yellow to electric green, striking blue and shimmering hot pinks and purples. Lightning Ridge also produces crystal opals (such as this one), which feature brilliant colours that pop against translucent or transparent body tones.• This particular Black Lightning Ridge Opal has a dark-blackish semi-transparent to translucent body and is a solid piece of opal, it is NOT a Doublet or Triplet and has no backing. • The colour of the flashes is the most brilliant neon cobalt-violet purple and clovers 90% of the gem. When viewing it from different angles you can see that the colour is all over the surface except for a small pocket at the bottom. There is also a few small flashes of brilliant green.• This opal has been cut and polished into an oval-shaped cabochon and is held in place by four prongs. The photos just do not do this beautiful opal justice, in person when you can view it from different angles it really comes to life.• It's VERY IMPORTANT to NOT wear translucent Opals when showering, bathing, or in extreme heat conditions, and not to wash or clean them in water as it can affect the transparency of the opal. As opals are composed of approx. 5-10% water, if that natural balance of water is affected the opal may become whitish or opaque in appearance.• This opal is set into a four-prong solid 925 sterling silver setting and comes with a matching sterling silver chain.• Opal is the traditional birthstone for people born in October, and the stone for the 12th and 14th wedding anniversary. • Tracking is included for Australian orders over $50 AUD only. Postage and handling time is 1-3 business days excluding weekends and public holidays.• All international orders come with tracking and lost parcel insurance as standard. Registered post with tracking is available to select at checkout for domestic orders when finalising payment if preferred. • A cute gift box is only included with Standard Satchel or Express satchel postage options available to purchase at checkout, the gift box in the photo is for display purposes only. Otherwise it comes with a very pretty gift bag, thank you for browsing!😊 🎁 Is this for a gift? Just include a note to let me know when checking out so I can include a couple of little extras to make it extra special. If you choose either the Australia Post Standard Satchel or Express Satchel postage options at checkout your jewellery will come gift boxed and specially packed - for a true VIP experience! 😲 🍭🌩️🍭🌩️🍭 OPAL MEANING: This is a stone so dedicated to the eye, so pleasing to the sight, it inspires love and hope, innocence and purity, luck and happiness. In the metaphysical world, Opal acts as a prism within the aura, bringing a full spectrum of Light energy to the system, soothing and clearing the emotional body, and boosting the will to live and the joy of one’s earthly existence. It enkindles optimism, enthusiasm and creativity, and allows for the release of inhibitions inspiring love and passion. Opal enhances cosmic consciousness and stimulates flashes of intuition and insight, yet is a protective stone for deep inner work, meditations, and lower world shamanic journeys.Opal is most known for its ability to bring one’s traits and characteristics to the surface for examination and transformation. Just as Opal absorbs and reflects light, it picks up thoughts and feelings, desires and buried emotions, amplifying them and returning them to the source. While magnifying one’s negative attributes may prove to be uncomfortable, it allows for understanding how destructive these emotions can be and assists the process of letting them go. Opal also illuminates the positive actions and emotions of the self, enhancing the good and true, and fostering one’s highest potential. It is a karmic stone with a reminder that what one sends out will return.Opals promote a sense of calm security, easing stress and depression, and encouraging one to stop brooding in order to better direct one’s thoughts and energies. They are antidotes to restless thoughts and racing minds that rehash the past or anticipate the future. Opals center the mind and are stones of happy dreams, particularly soothing for children and those who have always slept badly or had recurring nightmares with no apparent reason. Precious Opal relieves any issues a child may have with an invisible or imaginary friend, and is especially helpful before sleep if the child wishes the friend to go away at bedtime.A stone of protection, Opal is a marvelous shield to keep from absorbing other people’s negative thoughts and energies. Just as it uses interference and diffraction to produce its colors, it can also run interference around challenging people or situations that affect your mood or hurt your feelings. Opal can also provide a “cloak of invisibility” in circumstances where one does not wish to be noticed or needs to fade into the background. It is highly beneficial when venturing into dangerous places, or in shamanic work where stealth is required.Opals resonate with energies of the Mother Goddess and are exceptional gifts for mothers or mothers-to-be. Gift a new piece of jewelry for the birth of each child. A tiny Milk Opal buried beneath a willow, the mother tree, or any fruit tree at full moon aids conception. As an emotional support, Opal helps overcome fears of childbirth that may prevent a woman from trying to conceive, and can alleviate overwhelming fears during pregnancy and early months of a new baby’s life. Opal is also consoling to mothers experiencing empty-nest syndrome. Opal is a seductive stone, associated with love and passion, desire and eroticism. It can be used to intensify what one is feeling and to release inhibitions; however the stone can divide and scatter energy so one should be well-centered before using Opal to explore or amplify feelings. Have other stones standing by to aid integration.Opal may be utilized to send healing to the Earth’s energy field, repairing depletions, and re-energizing and stabilizing the grid. Opals are wonderful occupational crystals, encouraging humanitarian love and service, lightness, spontaneity and dynamic creativity. They are excellent stones for those who work in or around water, such as physical therapists who employ hydrotherapy. White Precious Opals and Fire Opals inspire all who write, dance, play music or sing, or who teach or organize creative or performing arts. Owyhee Blue Opals expand energies for channels, mediums, psychics and teachers who communicate higher guidance through speech and sound. Black Precious Opals support hypnotherapists, past-life regression counselors, shamans and others who access the deepest realms of the self and mind in order to heal.⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️I always include gemstone descriptions and photos with care to ensure that you know what you are buying. I try extremely hard to describe items as exactly as possible but as I am not a professional photographer with a professional camera, there may sometimes be differences in shade or colour that I cannot help. It is not in my best interest to be dishonest about an item's appearance, colour, or condition. I would gain absolutely nothing by lying about an item's appearance in any way. I'm always happy to answer any questions, or upload a video of any item, if there is anything that you are unsure of. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🙏 Please, please, please contact me before leaving neutral or negative feedback or opening an item dispute case! I am more than happy to address any issues or problems that you may have, and I will solve them! I endeavour to answer all messages within 48 hours. Leaving hurtful feedback helps nobody and seriously affects sellers - I am 💯% committed to your satisfaction with your jewellery. 😍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⏳ If you are buying an item that is needed by a specific date, I recommend choosing the express post option to ensure your item arrives in the most secure way and in good time. Unfortunately sometimes the eBay estimated arrival times are not 100% correct and are just that - an estimate. Your parcel rarely may take a little longer to arrive via Australia Post, even when an order is sent on time. It is just an occasional part of choosing the convenient option of buying online. There will sometimes unforeseen issues with the postal service itself that the seller cannot pre-empt. I will always refund a buyer if the parcel is reported as missing after a fair amount of time has passed. I strongly recommend that you also choose the registered or express postage option so that your order is delivered on time and so you have peace of mind as you are able to track it yourself. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ eBay's policy means that buyers are responsible for any and all custom duties in their own country. eBay in most cases will automatically include the import/tax fee in the order total when you pay for your order, sellers themselves don't collect it. In most countries (as far as I'm aware🤷‍♀️) there should be no additional fees when collecting your parcel if eBay has included that fee with your order. ⭐️⭐️⭐ 💎💎💎💎💎💍 I am a very passionate gem, crystal and jewellery collector and I have a decent knowledge of crystals and gems as I have been collecting and wearing them for more than 25 years - gems & jewels are a true passion for me! I have only just begun to build my own "Gem-pire" to share the jewellery I love to create with the world! 💎💎💎 For me jewellery is all about the gemstone! I take great care and pride in creating simple, stylish & modern pieces that celebrate the stone itself. I'm the sort of person who wants to own a little piece of everything. I particularly love sourcing unusual and rare semiprecious and precious gems that can often be very expensive or uncommon, and then create jewellery so that everyone can own something truly special and unique! 💎💎💎 Don't be put off by my affordable prices, it is extremely important to me that I use only the best natural stones & solid sterling silver findings - I test all diamonds and acid test all silver to ensure that what I sell is genuine. If I am unsure of whether a stone is genuine or is synthetic/created I will say, so you can always buy with confidence. Everything I make is hypoallergenic too - I use genuine 92.5% sterling silver, surgical stainless steel, or a UV protective coating so that even people with metal allergies or sensitive skin like myself can wear them also. 💖I take great pride and care in choosing my crystals and gemstones to create one-of-a-kind pieces. Please let me know if you would like any gems or sizes in particular as I can do custom orders and I'd love any suggestions or feedback. ⭐️ Your happiness is my greatest reward! ⭐️ 💎💎💎 📮All my items are sent using Australia Post service and I offer Standard, Registered postage (***highly recommended - tracking included) or Express postage options.

There is an automatic cost added to postage costs for each additional item. 💎💎💎 ✨ Some of the photos are only sample shots of a particular item as I sometimes have more than one in stock, so the photos are indications of what it looks like. Because I'm using natural gemstones there will always be differences in the gems, as each one is unique. If you would like to see a picture of the specific item that you're bidding on just send me a message.I try very hard to colour match stones used to make earrings but because I am using genuine natural stones there maybe some differences in shade in the gemstones used. 🔍 Many of the natural gemstones that I sell will have inclusions in them which I personally really like to see.Even with today's technology inclusions are actually not able to be faked so I tend to regard them as being just as good as an authenticity certificate! 🕵️‍♀️ 📸 Please feel free to ask me any questions you would like to know, especially before the final sale or bid. The photos that I upload are also part of the items description. I take photos under different lighting conditions wherever possible to get the most accurate description of the items, but there may be some differences in colour or shade. 💎💎💎 📩 Please let me know within 72 hours if you need to wait until you are able to pay for an item, I am more than happy to wait for payment as long as you've messaged me.
