Peruvian Opal Ring | 14k Gold and Sterling Silver | Size 6.5
SKU: OOAKR127
This specific type of opal is the national stone of Peru. This fairly rare opal was named after the country, as the only source found is in the Andes mountains. It was believed Peruvian opals were originally a gift from Pachamama, an early Incan goddess of Earth and time. Peruvian opal does not have the same kind of fiery play of light as other opals, but it does still possess a beautiful iridescent quality. Blue is the most common colour of Peruvian opal, often being compared to that of the Caribbean Sea, and can contain black dendritic inclusions.
Peruvian opal has long been used to release tension and promote free-flowing ideas. According to metaphysical beliefs, Peruvian opal reduces stress and helps the wearer approach the future with a heightened sense of tranquillity.
