The term “crystal opal” refers to any kind of opal e.g. black opal, white opal, semi-black opal which has a transparent, translucent, or semi-translucent body. This is also referred to as the “diaphaneity” of a stone.
The opal has long been considered a lucky and protective talisman. During the Middle Ages, it was believed that if you wore an amulet containing opal, then you would be protected from failing vision and that your mind and memory would be strengthened.
As the light passes through the spheres and gaps, it diffracts (splits). Like a prism, the opal splits the white light into all the colours of the spectrum, and the light eventually bounces back out the top of the stone, at which point we get an eyeful of beautiful opal colours.
