Opal Legends
Opal is the stone of hope and is believed to raise the "consciousness" of the wearer. The ancient Greeks and Romans (including Emperor Mark Anthony) held opal in the highest of regard and it was much sought after for its beneficial qualities and incredible play of colours. It is believed to be the tears of the rainbow serpent in some Australian Aboriginal cultures. The Arabs believed it was created when lightning strikes the ground. It was said to cure eye disease protect against poisons and to ward off the evil eye. I believe it to be the most beautiful of all gemstones with the red of the best ruby the greens and blues of the best sapphires and emeralds combined in patterns never seen in other gemstones and it has the "purity of colour" rarely matched in nature. Black opals are the rarest and most beautiful of all the opals and the very best are found on and around the opal fields of Lightning Ridge, Australia
