At Black Star Opal, we pride ourselves on:
We are a family-owned business involved in the Australian opal industry since 1968. Initially specialising in mining, cutting and exporting opals internationally while based in the world-famous outback opal mining town of Lightning Ridge, we now sell opal gemstones and jewellery worldwide via our online business and at our retail store, The Opal Centre, based at The Big Banana theme park on the Coffs Coast in NSW, Australia.
As an established and reputable wholesale and retail opal business, we are directly connected to an extensive network of Australian opal miners and leading jewellery suppliers. This ensures our prices remain competitive and affordable for all budgets.
We offer a wide range of beautiful opal gemstones and opal jewellery designs in traditional settings and modern styles, including one-off, hand-made designs. We can also assist with designing a custom piece as a special gift or just for you.

We take care of the cost of worldwide shipping for all orders over AUD $300 and provide free insurance for all orders over AUD $1000.
