Angelic Treasure
Opal has a unique iridescent phenomenon displaying play-of-colour in reminiscent of the splashing paint on colourful paintings or a symphony of lights, flaunting the glorious creation of nature, like a magician capturing the heart of the adorned beholder.
One of Victoire de Castellane, Dior’s Senior Jewelry Art Director’s favorite gemstones is Opal. She once said it is‘a very poetic stone, an invitation to a fairy tale, to magic. When I look at it, I see the earth from afar, the oceans, the archipelagos, and the reflections of stars on the waves. I see it as nature’s gemstone par excellence, a stone that’s so linked to the feminine that it becomes organic.’
