The perfect gift to give a overseas visitor or to send/take overseas, is this wonderful scarf with the colours and shapes of an Australian Cooper Pedy Crystal Opal their colours resplendently detailed over the scarf.
SCARF TITLE: “Opal-HA”
DIMENSIONS: Ultrawide Panoramic 160cmX25cm.
PHOTOGRAPHY: August-October 2019, Victoria, Australia.
STORY: Opal is the national gemstone of Australia. Precious opal shows an amazing interplay of internal colours – and can display nearly all of the visible spectrum. In antiquity opal was rare and very valuable and through Europe it was a gem prized by royalty. The towns of Coober Pedy and Andamooka in South Australia as well as Lightning Ridge in New South Wales, are major sources of Australian opal. Being tiny, the opal used for this scarf was not valuable, and was purchased as a gift however close – up photography revealed a display of vibrant colours which surprisingly created the attractive design.
