Lay-By available at checkout.
Warm and earthy. 'Tippy' carries its colour in a soft blush of pink and orange gathered towards the top of the stone, sitting over a grey brown crystal body that looks like the country it came from.
It is a subtler opal than most, with the sort of quiet warmth that grows on you.
Red and orange are the rarest colours in opal, so finding them here at this price is a happy thing.

Every hand-crafted piece is as unique as the pieces of opal they are created around to create eye-catching, impressive mini works of art. All opal in the Collection are excavated from our family opal mine, Big Red, located in Western Queensland.
The opals and the gemstones are directly sourced in the rough and cut by Ross Chapman, Fellow and Lecturer of the Gemmological Association. He is also the father of Annie, founder of Lurlina. Hence, the jewellery is of the highest quality and offers excellent pricing as there is no middleman.
These are solid, natural opals and will not be affected by water.
Moisturisers and body creams will not damage your opal jewellery, but a build-up of these products may reduce its shine.
Avoid abrasives or hard knocks as this could possibly damage your opal jewellery.
To clean, use a soft cloth or toothbrush with a mild detergent and warm water.
We offer a flexible lay-by option, 20% non-refundable deposit payable over 3 months.
