Although the layout on opal brooches is pretty, it is the stone itself which makes it one of my favored pieces of jewelry.

The most bizarre thing about opal brooches is that I can't remember where or when I got it. I guess I ought to be nearly tempted to consider that I always had it, except for the memory of, when I was a young person, not receiving any brooches that I was fond of, and heading out to the charity store to get some. There is no way I would have felt deprived of brooches if I had by this time had Australian opal brooches at that point!

Opal brooches can have as few was one opal or as many as 64, depending on the style and size. Each opal needs to be treated with care and respect because they are delicate gemstones.

Wearing opal brooches for special events and the like is fine, as long as you do not forget you are wearing it.
