Pear Faceted Mexican Fire Opal

Mexican Fire Opal is prized for its blazing reddish-orange color — a characteristic that sets it apart from most other opals, which typically display a shifting play of color. These pear-faceted stones are offered in AA quality, meaning they are eye-clean with a consistent light to medium reddish-orange hue. Untreated and genuine, these stones are well suited for setting into fine jewelry designs.

Opal is celebrated as one of the most magical and luckiest of all gemstones, and it is the recognized birthstone for October. Because opal is relatively soft and sensitive to moisture loss, it requires special handling and storage considerations — details outlined below.
