About Australian Fire Opal
Australian fire opal is a type of natural opal known for its
vibrant, warm body colors ranging from yellow to orange and red. Unlike Mexican fire opals which derive their value primarily from this body color and are often transparent or translucent, Australian fire opals are particularly prized for also displaying an intense
"play of color" or "fire" effect, which is the flashing of rainbow colors across the stone's surface.
