Natural Opal vs Synthetic Opal – Key Differences Explained
Natural opal and synthetic opal may look similar, but they differ in origin, value, and appearance. Natural opal forms over millions of years inside the earth, showing unique, irregular color patterns and natural inclusions, making every stone one-of-a-kind. In contrast, synthetic opal is created in a lab within a short time, offering consistent patterns, uniform quality, and a more affordable price.
Natural opals are rare, valuable, and highly sought after, while synthetic opals are budget-friendly and commonly used in fashion jewelry.
