Certified by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) as "Polymer Impregnated Synthetic Opal." Bello Opal is composed of 80% silica and 20% polymer. Its unique structure features orderly arrays of silica spheres that reflect light in a mesmerizing play of color, similar to natural opal’s precious fire. What makes Bello Opal so special is its meticulously engineered columnar structure, which requires 10 months to grow in the laboratory, resulting in a vertical fire effect that mimics the appearance of natural opal while offering superior durability and consistency.

Unlike natural opals, which can be fragile and prone to cracking, synthetic Bello Opal is designed for greater resilience, making it more suitable for daily wear without losing its stunning vibrancy. Its refractive index (RI) falls between 1.37 and 1.47, aligning with the gemological properties of high-quality opals, ensuring its brilliance and captivating color play.

Metaphysically, Bello Opal is known for its energy of emotional healing and creativity. Its radiant colors are said to enhance intuition, clear mental blockages, and promote self-expression. Connected to both the heart and sacral chakras, it helps cultivate love, passion, and joy. With its long-lasting durability, captivating color, and healing properties, this pendant serves as both a beautiful accessory and a potent tool for emotional balance and creativity.
