Opals and Good Luck

Throughout much of history, Opals were considered good luck and among the most magical of gemstones. Because of their highly desirable play of colors and stunning natural attributes, the Opal was highly valued and coveted.  Opal used to be considered the stone of kings. During the Roman times, it was much sought-after and considered second only to emerald gemstones. History tells us that the Roman Caesars presented their wives with Opals because it was believed that opals would bring good luck to the wearer. Opals were worn and carried around like an amulet, believed to bring protection and good fortune.
