I am lucky enough to be able to cut my own stones as well as create and present to you my  original works. Each piece is put together with the passion I have for making jewellery. Please be aware that these Opals may have natural pits and markings. They are as nature intended I have only cut, shaped and polished, I have not even tried to remove any imperfections.

If you've never had a little bit of Australia how better to start than with a collectible piece. Or you may be in love with Opals like me and can't help but add to your collection.

Frequently asked question:  Can my Opal go in water?

All Australian Opals CAN go into water.  They are not porous.  Australian Opal are the most durable of all the Opals.  Please don't confuse other Opal with Australian Opal.  The only time you need to be careful of submerging Australian Opal in water is when they are doublets and triplets because of the glue used to hold the slice of Opal onto the backing.  Anyone who sells doublets or triplets should give you full disclosure.  All my Opals are solid and will not change or alter in water. Guaranteed!!  

Can my Pearls go in water?
You can get pearls wet but it is preferable that they are not worn continuously.  They have a natural coating of nacre that will damage over time if in contact with perfume or detergents.  So to keep your pearls shiny and white it's best to remove and store in a dry place in a cloth bag for protection when you are not wearing them.

*all photos are taken by me on my iPhone. Sunlight and direct light is the best way to see the beauty and intensity of colour in an Opal.
