The National Opal Collection

The National Opal Collection has a beautiful range of black opals, light opals, boulder opals and exquisite opal jewellery.

Centrally located on Swanston Street, the National Opal Collection is a treasure trove of beautiful Australian Opals and showcases a diverse range of pieces from souvenir items to collector’s opals.

There’s also an opal museum where you can discover the link between opals and the dinosaur. You’ll marvel at the wonder of opalised prehistoric fossils and plants which are displayed amongst three-dimensional dioramas of prehistoric Australia.
