Dendrite Opal - Oval

Dendrite Opal is a truly unique stone, combining the milky, translucent appearance of Common Opal with exquisite, natural black or brown dendritic inclusions. These fern-like, tree-like, or moss-like patterns are created by manganese or iron oxides, turning each gemstone into a unique, miniature landscape. Unlike Precious Opal, this variety does not display a play of colour, but it is highly prized for its captivating organic patterns and striking contrast. These large ovals are perfect for creating stunning, one-of-a-kind pendants and statement rings.

Available Sizes and Dimensions (approximate):

Important Gemstone Information:

• Care Note: As a hydrated mineraloid, Opal is sensitive to heat, dryness, and sudden temperature changes, which can lead to cracking (often called "crazing"). Clean only with a soft cloth, mild soap, and room-temperature water. Never use ultrasonic or steam cleaners, and avoid prolonged immersion in water or exposure to harsh chemicals.
