Stone Insights:
Solid Lightning Ridge White Fiery Gem Opal:
Born from ancient sedimentary layers in Lightning Ridge, Australia, this opal is a rare 22-carat specimen celebrated for its kaleidoscopic fire. It belongs to the amorphous silica family, forming over millions of years through silica gel deposits in ironstone cavities. Its shifting play of color, flashes of emerald green, aqua, gold, and scarlet symbolizes transformation, intuition, and divine inspiration. Spiritually linked with the Crown and Heart Chakras, opal opens emotional clarity, amplifies creativity, and awakens spiritual insight. Associated with Libra and Cancer, it channels harmony, renewal, and a sense of joyful flow.
Origin and Authenticity:
