SKU: PRAOP01160 Origin: Australia Original Natural Opal weighing 5.3 Carat (5.89 Ratti) From Australia (IDT lab certified) Opal Opal is a white-colored variation of the Silicate mineral family. It is ruled by the planet Venus. Opal is famous for its play-of-color display, which consists of flashing rainbow hues. Because precious opal is made up of sub-microscopic spheres packed in a grid-like patternÑsimilar to layers of Ping-Pong balls in a boxÑit exhibits color play. Lightwaves diffract, or bend, as they pass between the spheres. As they bend, they separate into the rainbow's hues, known as spectral colors. The outcome is a color explosion.
