FAQs

Opals gained immense popularity during the Victorian era, particularly after Queen Victoria patronised Australian opals and wore them frequently, associating the gemstone with luck and royalty.

Authentic pieces typically feature solid gold settings such as 9ct or 18ct yellow gold, holding natural opals or opal doublets secured with bezel or claw settings, often paired with traditional post and butterfly backs or screw backs.

An opal doublet consists of a thin slice of natural opal glued to a dark backing material like ironstone or onyx to enhance colour play; examination under magnification via a loupe will reveal the horizontal joining line along the side profile.

These versatile drop earrings complement both understated everyday attire and formal evening wear, pairing particularly well with upswept hair to highlight the movement and play of light within the stones.

Opals contain water and are sensitive to sudden temperature changes, harsh chemicals, and ultrasonic cleaners; they should be cleaned gently with a soft, damp cloth and stored away from hard gems to prevent scratching.
