1. Origin

Opalite is a man-made opal-like glass material rather than a natural mineral, showing a soft milky iridescence that shifts with the light. Natural opal comes mainly from Australia, Ethiopia, Mexico and Brazil, whereas opalite does not depend on a particular deposit. This item is a moon-shaped carving pendant measuring 20-30 mm.

2. History

Natural opal has been treasured as a gemstone since ancient times for its play of colour. Because high-quality natural opal is relatively expensive, a range of man-made imitation materials appeared from the 20th century onwards, and opalite is one of the common ones.

3. Usage

The product page notes that the moon-carving pendants are available for wholesale, measuring 20-30 mm. Man-made glass is easy to care for with a soft cloth, and prolonged soaking and strong impacts should be avoided.

4. Function

The product page notes that although opalite is man-made, it embodies a serene beauty like that of natural opal. Practically, the pendant serves as everyday jewellery, a decorative item and a retail item.
