What Are Blue Opals?

Characterised by their luminous rich blue tones, these gems range from delicate sky blue to rich cobalt and teal shades, and contain vibrant flashes of green, violet or turquoise depending on the light and the angle. Most opals used in jewellery are either solid, doublet or triplet stones—each cut to showcase their vivid play-of-colour and stunning patterns.

Stud Earrings

Perfect for everyday elegance, our blue opal studs feature beautifully matched oval, round, or marquise-shaped opals. Set in sterling silver, gold plated silver or solid gold, these studs add a subtle sparkle to your look. They’re ideal for workwear, casual outfits, or adding a hint of natural beauty to any ensemble.

Drop and Dangle Earrings

Our drop and shepherd’s hook designs showcase the fluid beauty of Australian opals. Dangling earrings offer more movement, allowing the gemstones to catch the light and display their full spectrum of colour. Some designs feature additional embellishments like sparkling cubic zirconias or delicate filigree detailing to enhance the stone’s brilliance.

Baroque and Contemporary Designs

From baroque-inspired opal clusters to sleek modern shapes, our earrings reflect a wide design range. For lovers of unique jewellery, our more artistic settings and asymmetrical layouts offer an alternative to traditional gemstone earrings while still maintaining quality and wearability.

How to Style Blue Opal Earrings

This is an easy one—they can be styled in countless ways! Their oceanic tones pair beautifully with other cool-coloured gemstones like sapphire, turquoise and aquamarine, but they also provide a stunning contrast when worn with warm metals like yellow gold.

Here are a few style tips:

For Daywear: Pair simple studs with denim, linen or cotton for an easygoing, coastal-inspired look.

For Evenings: Opt for dangle or drop opal earrings with an off-the-shoulder top or dress to let the earrings shine.

For Boho Vibes: Mix blue stones with layered necklaces, bangles, or natural textures like leather and wood.

For Bridal or Formalwear: Choose finely crafted earrings in yellow gold or white gold for an elegant yet unique alternative to diamonds or pearls.

The Meaning of Blue Opals

These gems aren’t just visually striking—they’re also powerful stones in the realm of crystal healing and metaphysics. Many believe that they can calm a restless mind; encourage open and honest communication; promote emotional healing; and boost inspiration and creativity

As the traditional October birthstone, opals have long been revered as symbols of hope and transformation. The colour blue, in particular, is tied to the throat chakra, which governs self-expression and truth. Whether you're spiritually inclined or just love the colour, they carry an energy that many find comforting and uplifting.

Caring for Your Opal Earrings

Opals are relatively soft compared to other gemstones, so they're perfect for earrings settings where they stay out of the way of knocks and bumps. However a little extra care will keep them looking their best for years to come:

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Remove your earrings when cleaning, swimming, or applying hairspray or perfume.

Store Safely: Keep them in a soft pouch or lined jewellery box away from harder gemstones that could scratch them.

Clean Gently: Use a soft, damp cloth and avoid ultrasonic cleaners or commercial jewellery dips.
