SOME OPAL HISTORY
As I said above, Opals have been known since antiquity so no surprise that Pliny, the famous Roman author, praised them saying Opals combine the best possible characteristics of all other gemstones
the purple of the Amethyst, the golden yellow of the Topaz, the deep blue of the Sapphire, and the shine and sparkle of the Almandine
to make them the most beautiful of all gemstones.
Equally interesting is the history of the Fire Opal that also dates back to ancient times, specifically ancient India, the ancient Persian kingdom, and the ancient peoples of central AMERICA where they were admired as symbols of the most fervent love and believed to have been created in the waters of paradise.
