Vivid Tangerine Orange Mexican Fire Opal. Unlike play-of-color opals, fire opals are valued for their body color, which comes from trace amounts of iron in the silica structure. This intense orange is entirely natural and untreated.
Sourced from volcanic deposits in Querétaro, Mexico, fire opals are one of the few types of opal that can be both transparent and faceted. Their durability & brilliance make them highly collectible among gem enthusiasts and jewelers alike.
