What does under $1,000 buy in opal?

This is where solid opal really comes into its own. You'll find larger solid and doublet Australian opals set in sterling silver, plus pieces set in 9ct and 14ct gold. Stones are higher quality, colours are stronger, and there's more choice of shape and pattern. It's a lovely range for a partner, an anniversary or a milestone birthday.

How to choose an opal gift under $1,000

  • Choose colour first. Red and orange flashes are the rarest. Blue and green suit almost everyone. Pick the colours she already wears.
  • Look for brightness. Ask for a product video. A good opal flashes from several angles, not just one.
  • Pick the metal she wears. Sterling silver for cool tones, gold for warmth and an heirloom feel.
  • Rings need a size. If you're not sure, a pendant is the safe and generous choice.

Opal Gifts Under $1000 FAQs

Is solid opal worth the extra over doublet or triplet opals?

If you want a gift made to last, yes. Solid opal is one natural piece of opal with colour all the way through, and it can get wet without damage to layers.

Which opal is best for an anniversary gift?

A solid opal pendant or ring in colours she loves. Opal is the traditional 14th anniversary gift, but it suits any milestone.

Can I see a piece in more detail before buying?

Yes. Contact us and we'll send extra photos or a video in natural light.

What if it's not quite right?

Eligible unworn items can be returned within 30 days in their original box. A 5% restocking fee applies to change-of-mind returns, and resized gold rings can't be returned for change of mind.
