Its milky white body shows bright play of colour in green, orange, red and blue. It is natural and untreated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpal is a hydrated form of silica that forms when silica-rich water settles into cracks and cavities and slowly hardens. Precious opal shows play of colour, flashes of spectral colour produced as light diffracts through tiny, regularly stacked silica spheres. Opal is softer than quartz and holds some water, so it should be protected from knocks, sudden temperature changes and harsh chemicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn crystal traditions, opal is often associated with creativity, emotional expression and inspiration. These associations come from spiritual and folk traditions rather than scientifically established properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChemical Composition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hydrated silica, SiO₂·nH₂O\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMohs Hardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5–6.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTreatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e None (natural, untreated)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1pc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWith this product, you will receive the actual stone shown in the photograph.
