About the Crystal

Rainbow Opal is a descriptive trade term rather than a separate mineral species, generally used for precious opal with strong multicolored play-of-color. That spectral effect is produced when light diffracts through an ordered arrangement of microscopic silica spheres inside the opal.

Rainbow Opal Essence Pattern

The essence is therefore used around emotional liveliness, creativity and allowing more than one color or feeling to coexist rather than forcing experience into a single fixed tone.
