Precious, Valuable Investments that you can set in your own Jewellery design or give as the perfect gift as: "a Rainbow you can hold in your hand" Genuine + Natural + Guaranteed! At Australian Opal Cutters our Black Opal Rings are hand-crafted Natural Australian Black Opals that have been hand cut from rough Opal in the Australian Opal Cutters Sydney workshop. At Australian Opal Cutters our Natural Australian Blackl Opal is exactly that, Natural, Genuine, Australian Black Opal from Lightning Ridge in N.S.W. (the only place on earth that produces it) that has not been treated in any chemical process to bring out or enhance the colour! Unfortunately many online sellers are offering “Opal” but it is a far cheaper Ethiopian Opal alternative, a material that is often heat and chemical treated to bring out the colour vimeo.com/192402542. still others offer “Opal” but are actually selling fake plastic! This is the perfect gift as it is a genuine investment, much rarer than diamond and the only gemstone where you can "hold a rainbow in your hand" literally! The Black Opals are hand-cut from the "rough" material by industry experts who know how to find the colour and carefully remove the Opal "potch" (Opal without colour). This is an age-old tradition and is a cutting process that has not changed in 100 years. The Opal is then set in a piece of jewellery that we have designed in our Sydney workshop and Opal cutting factory. Our designers have been designing for decades and have had the enormous privilege of designing jewellery for the Royal family.
