<div data-element-id="elm_6OUT9LAJS5mFYOUKxlUYNA" data-element-type="text" class="zpelement zpelem-text "><style> [data-element-id="elm_6OUT9LAJS5mFYOUKxlUYNA"].zpelem-text{ border-radius:1px; } </style><div class="zptext zptext-align-center " data-editor="true"><div style="color:inherit;"><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">We come across various types of Opals that are talked about on different online and offline marketplaces. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">At a high level there are two types of Opals:</span></span></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">1. Precious Opals</span></span></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">2. Common or ordinary Opals</span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">What broadly differentiates these two types of Opals is the play of light. In common Opals the play of light is almost absent. They are often seen as dull although they may be found and sold in larger sizes. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">However, the Precious Opals display dazzling colours and glitter in every angle under different light conditions. This feature is what makes it special in the family of precious and semi-precious gemstones. Needless to say that precious Opals command higher value in the gemstone market than other types of plain coloured stones. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">The types of Opals found are also differentiated by the place of the mining. By and large Australia is known for most of the world’s precious Opals. If you come across the term <i>‘Fire Opal’,</i> it’s most like that it is mined in Australia. The variety of colours found in the mines of Australia are simply spectacular. Also, the quantity of Opal stones mined in Australia is higher than any other part of the world. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">The suitability of the Opals varies largely by the usage of the stones or the purpose for which people choose certain gemstones. Common Opals are used in making jewellery with suggested gemstones in Astrology. They tend to be larger in size however it may not have the play of light in them which in turn, would be suitable for women’s jewellery.</span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">The play of light in precious Opals does make it stand out, when used in jewellery. We rarely find Opal jewellery made of precious Opals at least in the context of India’s jewellery market. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">This is where we make huge efforts to bring to our customers, a blend of Indian classical design language with the rare class of gemstones such as the Opals. We do this skillfully by curating the most attractive Opal stones suited for the jewellery we make. </span></span></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="justify"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;">In case you are looking for truly natural and genuine Opals, do visit our collection of Opal jewellery at <u>triyaopals.in</u><span>. </span></span></span></p><br><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><br></p><p align="left"><span><span style="font-size:10pt;"><i>TriyaOpals.in is an online retailer of high quality Opal jewellery in India.

The real worth of the jewellery comes from the fact that this gemstone is mined in very few locations of the world, of which Australian Opals have a special place in terms of value attached to it.
