Clean your opal jewellery using warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners and abrasive materials that may damage the gemstone.

Why choose natural opal?
Natural opal is valued for its individuality. Every gemstone has its own colour patterns and character, meaning no two pieces of jewellery are ever exactly the same.
