Choosing an opal should be a fun and exciting experience. At
Romalar Jewelry, we're here to show you precisely what to look for in a good stone:
-
Play of Color: This is what makes an opal unique—its own essence. We look for stones with brilliant, dynamic hues that change and shift as you twist or spin them in your palm.
-
Pattern: The way the color flashes are arranged also matters. Each pattern gives the opal its own personality: harlequin has a spotty appeal, pinfire features tiny sparkles, and gentle floral forms add softness.
-
Body Tone: Opals come in a range of base hues, from deep black to gentle white. This backdrop color can completely transform the stone’s overall look—so it all comes down to what resonates with you.
-
Cut and Shape: All our opals are cut by professionals to bring out their finest color and brilliance. Whether you prefer a traditional oval, a timeless round, or a one-of-a-kind freeform cabochon, we ensure the cut highlights the stone’s best qualities.
Our staff is also here to explain these features in simple terms. We’ll help you find an opal that not only catches your eye but also aligns with exactly what you have in mind.
At Romalar Jewelry, every
opal ring is crafted with care and honesty—no shortcuts. We exclusively use real, natural opals (no fakes or synthetics) and set them in high-quality metals like pure gold or platinum.
We’ll also share all the details you need about your specific gemstone, so you know precisely what you’re getting. This is how we ensure your purchase is informed, and that you’ll cherish the piece for years to come.
Opals are fragile, so they need extra care to stay beautiful long-term. As your trusted jeweler, we recommend the following:
-
Gentle Cleaning: Use only a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and steam cleaners—they can damage the stone.
-
Protective Storage: Keep your opal ring in the soft Romalar pouch we provide. Also, store it separately from other jewelry to prevent scratches or damage.
-
Mindful Wear: Remove your ring when doing chores, swimming, or hitting the gym. These activities can damage the setting or expose the opal to harmful chemicals.
Our relationship with you doesn’t end once you purchase your ring. We offer professional inspection and cleaning services to keep the setting secure and your opal shining bright.
You can count on us to help care for this lovely investment—so it stays in outstanding condition for future generations to enjoy.
