What makes Lightning Ridge opal distinctive?+
Lightning Ridge in New South Wales is renowned for precious opal, including black and lighter-body stones. Every opal varies in body tone, pattern and play of colour.
Can an opal be used in an engagement ring?+
Yes, provided its setting and your wear habits are considered carefully. Opal requires more thoughtful care than some other gemstones, so discuss the exact stone and lifestyle with the studio.
What is the difference between black and white opal?+
The distinction relates primarily to body tone. A darker body can intensify contrast, while a lighter body often creates a luminous, softer effect. The exact colour play remains unique to each stone.
Can you create a bespoke opal ring?+
Yes. A bespoke design can begin with the opal itself, then develop the setting, side stones, metal and proportions around its individual shape and colour.
