Opal Necklaces
Celebrate the month of October with a stunningly crafted opal necklace by PurpleMay Jewellery. Often likened to “fire caught in stone” the aborigines call opals “fire in the desert” while the stone itself is also celebrated as Australia’s national stone.
Match your opal necklace with neutral colours for a spark of light iridescence to your outfit or wear it to bring out your natural eye colour. Opals are versatile stones that often go with everything.
The Story of Our Australian Opals
Opals have long been celebrated in cultures the world over. Some cultures in Asia have attributed them to the rainbow goddess who fell to earth while others have described the stone as symbolising all good virtues based on the full spectrum of colours.
In modern society, opals have long been a staple in the Australian mining industry and consequent jewellery industry having gained momentum in the mid 1800’s, Sydney. In 2008 opal production was said to sit at $47 million, supporting a variety of communities in NSW, QLD and SA. We’re now proudly bringing these artisanal items to all jewellery lovers.
