Our Unique Coober Pedy Opal
Coober Pedy, a town in South Australia, is renowned for its opal production, especially the famous Coober Pedy opal. This region is a treasure trove of high-quality opals, attracting gem enthusiasts from around the world.
Types of Opals from Coober Pedy
The Coober Pedy opal is primarily known for its white opals, also referred to as fire white opals, milky opal, or milk opals. These opals fall within the body tone range of N7 to N9 on the body tone chart. Unlike nobby opals, white opals from Coober Pedy are generally found as seam opals, often displaying a full spectrum of opal colors on a white potch background, making them highly sought after for their brightness.
Characteristics of Coober Pedy Opals
White opals from Coober Pedy are prized for their ability to display vibrant colors, which makes them ideal for creating matching jewelry sets such as earrings, pendants, and rings. This matching potential gives Coober Pedy opals a unique advantage, as it's rare to find such uniformity in other opal.
