A CLIENT'S OWN LOOSE OPAL LED TO THIS INTRIGUING, SCULPTURED DESIGN
The art of shaping and polishing opals is just that, a real art form. From symmetrical shapes like ovals to unusual freeform shapes, the really skilled gem artist brings out the best in every gem. Shape and polish too far and the opal is effectively lost. No two opals are ever the same, every one is unique and this is just part of what makes them so very special. Why not call in to Curtis Australia next time you're in Bairnsdale – you'll see beautiful one of a kind opal jewellery that's ready to wear, - or you could even choose your own unique opal and combine it with other gems to create something spectacular just for you. A few well chosen diamonds add even more to the thoughtful designs that Glenn and his team create. You can chat with Glenn and Heather Curtis in their comfortable showroom, and another significant plus is that everything at Curtis Australia is created on the premises too. An important point - because opals vary so much and have truly individual characteristics, you shouldn't choose an opal online, they really are best seen in person. Be aware that there are synthetic and even imitation opals too. A photograph can only show so much, so to really appreciate the individual characteristics of an opal, see it for yourself and in daylight if possible.
