What Are Composite Opal Products

Composite opal products are gemstones made up of two or more parts that are manufactured to look like or imitate a natural mined opal. The opal component of the composites can be either a natural (mined out of the ground) opal or a manufactured synthetic or imitation opal. Composite opals can take the form of doublets or triplets. Doublet opal pendant consist of two pieces where a slice of natural opal is cemented to a dark base material. Triplet opals consist of three layers, with a slice of natural opal cemented between a dark base material and a clear quartz or glass capping.
