Australian Pink Opal is a beautiful and unique gemstone that is highly valued in the world of gemstone collectors and jewelry designers. It is a type of opal that is found exclusively in Australia, and it is characterised by its stunning pink coloration, which ranges from soft pastel shades to deeper, more intense hues.

In terms of its chemical composition, Australian Pink Opal is composed primarily of silicon dioxide, with traces of other minerals such as iron and aluminum. Its hardness is rated at around 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale.

Australian Pink Opal is found in several locations in Western Australia, including the areas around the towns of Meekatharra, Mount Magnet, and Sandstone. The opals are typically found in sedimentary rocks such as sandstone and siltstone, and are formed by the deposition of silica-rich fluids in cavities and cracks in the rock.

Mining of Australian Pink Opal is primarily done by small-scale operations, and the opals are carefully extracted using specialized equipment and techniques. The opals are then sorted and graded based on their quality and characteristics, with the highest quality stones commanding premium prices in the global market.

One of the key advantages of Australian Pink Opal is its versatility. It can be used in a wide range of jewelry designs, from simple, elegant pendants and earrings to more elaborate, ornate pieces that incorporate other gemstones and precious metals. Its unique coloration also makes it an ideal choice for those looking to add a touch of romance and femininity to their jewelry collection.

Overall, Australian Pink Opal is a stunning and unique gemstone that is sure to capture the attention of collectors and jewelry enthusiasts alike. Its delicate coloration, translucence, and versatility make it an ideal choice for a wide range of jewelry designs, and its rarity and beauty ensure that it will be highly valued for years to come.

Why are users outbidding themselves?

Automatic Bid icon
Automatic Bid

When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.

When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.

Audit

The Opal Sheriff program allows our members to request an audit on any product, which is completed by an independent Gemologist who assesses the accuracy of the item description and pictures.
