Hello! Please allow us to introduce ourselves! We are Floridian Opalholics. We've been in the opal industry since the early 1990's. While we appreciate opals from all locations, we collect, carve, cut, and polish Australian opals, predominantly from Lightning Ridge. Brian began in his late teens, collecting and learning to cut opal with his father. Brandy was introduced to black opal along with Brian about the same time. As a couple we started our collection shortly after we were married in 1993. Over the years we aquired quite a sizeable and amazing collection of a wide range of opals. We’ve participated in many rock & gem shows across the country, including the Internation Gem and Jewelry Show in Tuscon, AZ. We hope you enjoy viewing our collection!! Please visit us on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok too! Brian and Brandy Petersen
