DESCRIPTION

Opalite, also known as "Sea Opal" or "Opalized Glass," is a man-made synthetic gemstone that mimics the appearance of natural opal. Geologically, Opalite does not occur naturally in the Earth's crust but is created through the fusion of opalescent glass and metal oxide. The glass is usually made from a mixture of silica, dolomite, and metal elements, resulting in a translucent or milky white appearance with a play of iridescent colors. While it is not a naturally occurring gemstone, Opalite is popular for its mesmerizing beauty and mystical qualities.

Historically and culturally, Opalite does not have a long-standing history like natural gemstones. As a man-made material, its cultural significance is more recent. Opalite gained popularity in the New Age and spiritual communities due to its ethereal and calming energy. It is often used in crystal healing, meditation, and energy work as a tool for spiritual awakening and emotional healing. Opalite is valued for its association with serenity, tranquility, and inner peace, and is believed to enhance one's intuition and communication with higher realms.

To properly care for Opalite and prevent physical damage, it is important to handle it with care and avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures. Opalite should be stored separately from other gemstones or jewelry to prevent scratching. It is recommended to clean Opalite using a soft, dry cloth or with lukewarm water and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using ultrasonic cleaners or steam cleaning methods as they may damage the stone or affect its appearance. Opalite is a relatively soft material, so it is essential to handle it gently and avoid any impact or rough treatment that could lead to chipping or breakage.
