Opal Blog – Australian Opal Hunter

This term is used to indicate whether or not an Opal, when viewed face on, presents its color directly to the viewer, the stone’s value is less if its splendor is visible only from acute angles. 

Many fine Opals, especially those with broad flashes of color, are at their best when viewed from a slight angle, these have special appeal when used as pendants or ring stones.
