Rather than using a traditional closed setting, the opal is held in a sterling silver crown bezel with an open back, allowing additional light to enter the stone and illuminate its natural fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe faceting gives the opal an unusual character, part gemstone, part captured light, with each angle revealing something slightly different.

That makes it less prone to the temporary transparency or color changes sometimes seen when hydrophane opals become wet. As with all natural opals, gentle care and mindful wear is still recommended. \u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurious to learn more about what makes opal such an unusual gemstone?
