Caring for OPALS

To adequately protect your valuable Opal jewellery, make sure you individually wrap your gems in a soft protective cloth and moisten the cloth before long-term storage. Opals can be stored safely but make sure there is moisture in the air when being stored.

While safes and lockboxes are secure, they are usually airless and have very little humidity. Opals have a 6–10 % water content and, like many other gems, will “dry out” and form cracks if they are subjected to extended dry storage.

If you need to store your Opal for an extended length of time, just place it in a padded cloth bag and dampen the cloth before storing it for protection. To keep your Opal safe for extended periods, wrap it in cotton wool with a few drops of water, then put it in a plastic bag. Even while microscopic molecules may soak into the stone, if exposed to extremely low humidity settings (for example, zero humidity storage safes), it will offer much-needed ambient moisture.

Opals “love to be worn”, and the ambient moisture found in everyday wear, with skin and contact with water, is all your Opal needs to keep them “healthy”. Placing your Opal in a glass of lukewarm water for 15 minutes every 12 months is another way to prevent it from drying out, especially if the Opal has been exposed to very dry conditions.

Avoid extreme temperature changes.
