FAQs about Opal Earrings

What do opals symbolize?

Opals have long been considered good luck and have been used to ignite creativity. Opals are also the birthstone for October, giving those born in that month a highly versatile stone to treasure, with a variety of colors to best represent them as an individual.

Is opal expensive?

Opals vary in price from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. The lighter the color of opal, the more common it is, and therefore more affordable. Small opal earrings are often more affordable than opal rings that feature a larger stone. Brilliant opal earrings can be found within any budget.

Can opals be worn everyday?

Opals can be worn every day, with care. Opals range from 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, which makes them softer than other common stones, but not completely vulnerable. Opal earrings and opal necklaces are worn in places where they won't be at risk of damage, so you can wear these pieces daily without fear. You should always remove your opal earrings whenever swimming or washing your hair, as the gemstone can be especially sensitive to chemicals.

How do you clean opal earrings?

You can keep your opal drop earrings or studs in shining shape with simple cleaning. Use a microfiber cloth to wipe away any imperfections. Avoid harsher cleaning techniques, such as steam cleaning or ultrasonic cleaners as these can damage the sensitive gemstone.

Which metal is best for this gemstone?

Most opal stud earrings are set in gold or silver. These metals are suitable for daily wear and allow the opal’s intrinsic beauty to shine. For pairs with additional gems, such as opal and diamond earrings, you will find these settings in gold.

Opal’s play-of-color is always in style, offering beautiful glow for earrings. A simple pair of opal stud earrings can dress up any casual outfit while intricate opal drops are perfect for more formal occasions.
