Collection: Mintabie Australian Opals
Mintabie is one of Australia’s most remote and legendary opal fields, nestled deep in the outback of South Australia. For decades it produced some of the world’s most extraordinary crystal and semi-black opals — stones of breathtaking clarity and vivid, rolling play-of-colour that collectors and jewellers prized above almost all others.
Mining at Mintabie has now ceased, making every stone from this field a finite and irreplaceable piece of Australian natural history. What remains is all there will ever be.
Our Mintabie opals are genuine, ethically sourced stones acquired directly from the field — each one a rare opportunity to own a gemstone that can never be replaced.
