Specialising in Australian opals, this large open showroom showcases a huge and unique range of opals set in ready-to-wear expertly crafted jewellery in both modern and traditional designs. They also offer a great selection of unset opals for all budgets.

With over 40 years' extensive experience in the opal industry, they educate all their visitors with an in-depth opal lesson. A full demonstration is given to each customer and they personally explain the differences between each type of opal, the cutting and polishing process, and how opals are valued by colour, brightness and pattern.
