A cornucopia of color and splendor, Revered as a symbol of hope, fidelity, and purity, opal was dubbed the Queen of Gems by the ancient Romans because it encompassed the colors of all other gems. Each gemstone exhibits a one-of-a-kind display that is bound to captivate. Opal is prized for its unique play of color, the ability to diffract light into flashes of rainbow color. The name opal probably is derived from the Sanskrit name for precious stone; upala.
