Opal Gifts Under $1000

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.
