About opal colours photographs:  The colours of an opal shown in photographs vary in different lighting and
the angle of the shots. To best show the colours of the opals I sell, I take photos from different angles and
different lighting conditions to give you the truest possible images of my opals.
Please see above video of this opal. It was taken in a photo studio under LED lights.


Black Opal: Black Opal is found mainly at Lightning Ridge N.S.W. 600km northwest of Sydney.

First noticed in the late 1800’s, it wasn’t until 1905 that the first shafts were dug and a layer of black “potch”

(non-precious opal) was discovered. Within this layer of potch is found precious opal called Black Opal a name

they have because of their dark body colour that ranges from light grey to dark black. Their rarity makes them

the most valuable of all opals.



Body Tone: Opal body tone is classified using the chart below.

This chart provided by the Opal Association here in Australia shows the different classifications of body tone

in Australian opals when viewed face-up ranging from the darkest 'N1' to the lightest 'N9'.
