Caring for your Opals
Opals are what I like to call rainbow earth glass. They are one of the softer stones in nature and will crack easily if not handled with care!
Ethiopian Opals in particular are Hydrophane, which means they absorb water like a sponge. If water is absorbed, the color and flash of your Opal might change and even become hazy. Long exposures to sunlight can also change the appearance of Opals. I recommend avoiding both submerging in water and direct sunlight.
All this said, if you protect your Opal from heavy blows, abrasive materials, and extreme amounts of heat and direct sunlight, your Opal should last lifetimes.
