Diamonds are not the only option for women's wedding rings

One of the strange things is that women have always loved diamonds the most. But this trend is changing these days and it is most noticeable today in the world of wedding rings. Fortunately, people today are much more open to new trends.

 

Blue Opal, the one gem that has been ignored for years by people who have decided to settle down, the one gem whose reputation has suffered since the Victorian era, is making a definitive return to the bridal market. And you won't believe what was the reason for his unfortunate decline in popularity. It was the death of a fictional character in a Victorian novel!

 

Those days of supreme ignorance are thankfully gone. But even today, the popular opinion is that the earlier the time, the more ridiculous the belief. Ironically, in the Middle Ages, which was long before the Victorian era, the opal was considered a blessing. Already at that time, people understood different aspects of marriage. They believed that the different colors seen in the opal reflected the different nuances of married life. It was also believed that different colors of opal represented different qualities attributed to the signs of the zodiac.

 

Australian Opal Direct is internationally known for its exports of gold, opals and sapphires. It produces more than 90% of the world's opals. Coober Pedy, Lightening Ridge, Quilpie are just a few of the mines responsible for this huge production. Therefore, it is only natural that women's wedding rings are increasingly made from opals in Australia. And not only women, men are interested in such opal jewelry even more than ever before. Especially since they can make a good business out of it by selling them to women! Jokes aside, men have become more fashion conscious and therefore experiment more. They are increasingly embracing the idea of ​​metrosexuality.

 

Speaking of opals, these beauties can be of various types. Because opals are made of silica and water, they are generally quite soft. But some opals can be naturally quite hard. They are much older.

 

Black opals make up a small fraction of total opal production due to their less availability. They are produced by the Lightening Ridge mines in New South Wales, Australia. You can search for black opal on the Internet. You will see and recognize the fact that black opals can be breathtakingly beautiful. The ones that radiate a navy blue color among all the darkness give the impression of some kind of enchanting object. The more you look at it, the more you can't help but stare into it, as if you want to lose yourself in its mysterious beauty.
