Moss Opal: Buy Moss Opal Gemstones at Affordable Prices

The name opal was probably derived from Sanskrit "upala", meaning "valuable stone". Moss opal belongs to the category of "common opal", which is opaque, rarely translucent, and typically exhibits no play of color. Precious opals display rainbow-like hues that change with the angle of observation. Moss opal is a milky white opal with unique inclusions of green hornblende in moss-like patterns. They are also often traded under marketing names, such as 'dendritic opal' or 'tree agate'. Moss opals are mostly offered as opal cabochons and are best suited for earrings, brooches, and pendants. Other types of opals that are trade with matrix or host rock (e.g., boulder opal and opal in matrix) are more durable and are better suited for rings. Even though opals are quite fragile, they are still one of the world's most popular jewelry gemstones.

There is a long standing belief in the healing power of opal. It is reported to be able to relieve depression and to help its wearer find true love.

Opal is one of the official birthstones for those born in October.

My only complaint is that there are so many beautiful and affordable stones that I get distracted from what I planned to order.

I placed order#384714 based on the picture on your website and the stone came in much darker. I'm sure it's the same stone i ordered but your lighting made it seem a lighter blue. I was trying to match a stone for a customer and based on the picture it would have been close enough but the stone in person is a mile off.
