Quality Living Opal Sterling Silver Bracelet

**● About Opals** The name Opal originates from the Greek word "Opallos," meaning to capture the play of color. Legend has it that opals are stones left behind by angels descending to Earth. Also known as the "stone of Cupid," they symbolize love, luck, and serve as a protective amulet. Opals are often considered symbols of creativity and inspiration, making them a captivating gemstone. **● Caring for Your Opal** Opals are gemstones with a unique vitality. Their distinctive flashes of color are due to the phenomenon of play-of-color. This optical effect occurs when light diffracts within the spaces between the opal's internal crystalline structure. This play-of-color is only visible when the internal moisture content is just right. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54178207864_0c00fbf5f3.jpg **● What to Avoid in Daily Care** 1. Prolonged immersion in water, such as during baths or swimming: Water can enter the internal spaces, filling them and preventing light from diffracting. This can cause the opal to appear transparent. 2. Extended direct exposure to sunlight, which can cause the internal moisture to evaporate. **What if my opal turns transparent after accidentally doing these things?** If it's too wet, place it in a well-ventilated area to air dry for about 3 days, and the play-of-color should reappear. A gentle reminder: opals naturally retain some moisture, so avoid completely drying them out with heat or sun. Simply air dry in the shade. If it has dried out, gently wipe it with a damp cloth or soak it in water for about 30 seconds. May opals bring you endless luck and love. Feel the power of protection with every step you take, embracing confidence and fearlessness. **● Size** |Size S includes a 2.5cm extension chain, suitable for wrist circumferences of 14 - 16 cm. |Size M includes a 2.5cm extension chain, suitable for wrist circumferences of 15.5 - 17.5 cm. **● Material and Production Time** |925 Sterling Silver (International Standard Silver) |Made to order.
