ABOUT Australian Opal Doublets
Opal Doublet as the name suggests, is a thin layer of precious Opal cemented onto a backing, usually a piece of common Black Opal or Ironstone. They were originally created from Opal that was perhaps too thin to produce a solid stone. Opal doublets are a much less expensive way to buy a colorful piece of precious Opal without the cost of a solid Opal. Some of the patterns and the brightness of the Opal doublets is incredible. Opal doublets originally were made in Lightning Ridge, Australia by using opal crystal and set on natural Black Opal potch.
WHEN WEARING
I have chosen high quality materials to create a piece of artful jewelry that will last a lifetime. Although crafted to last, please take care while wearing my pieces as natural stones can be delicate. To prolong the life of your piece, remove it while bathing, swimming, and during rigorous/dirty outdoor activities.
