NEW YORK – Opals have been the gemstones of kings for centuries. When worn in bright sun or clear light, opals blaze forth with a seemingly magical display of light and color that is like nothing else. Every opal is more than a piece of polished rock; it’s a radiant experience in which its blues, greens, whites and even black natural colorings is measured by its dazzle and sparkle.
