Buy Opal Bracelets at wholesale prices from our verified sellers who only sell natural opals, not man-made opals.

Opal bracelets are generally made in 925 silver or gold with doublets, triplets, solid black or boulder opals.

One popular style is boulder beads or matrix beads.

 To make an opal bead is very difficult ,first the rough boulder has to cut and sorted in the rough for pieces that look like bit of colour is inside the rough.

Than the cutter uses a saw blade to cut the rough into square shape.

 This square shaped piece is than placed into polishing machine that cuts the rough into a ball than the ball has hole drilled.

 So it takes a lot work just to make one bead on this jewelry piece so buyers can appreciate the finished jewelry piece.

 Even silver jewelry items are individually made.

These silver castings are each spot welded together so one can appreciate how hard and time-consuming opal bracelets are to make.

Also, it is not easy to match opals of the same colour or size Black opals are expensive and matching solid opals are now extremely expensive.

 Boulder opal stones are good to make into bracelets as  the opal fields Yowah ,koriot make inexpensive focal stones and even men can wear these designs as they look attractive and masculine.

So most commercial sizes are now 6x4 or 7x5mm and these are doublets or triplets with few solid white opals.

Crystal opals can be set with the back enhanced so they are very bright blue green colour but if back not covered in these are lighter blue colour Opal bangles made from pink opal are new and very fashionable bangle a s well as mosaic designs.

Silver Bangles are popular with opal doublets
