The Dendritic Opal, or “Moss Opal” by its fond nickname, falls under the common opal category. There have been over 60 types of opals identified in the world, and each falls into one of three categories: Common Opals, Precious Opals, and the rare Rainbow Opals. Opals, no matter what type, contain no crystalline structure and are often made up of a certain percentage of water and microscopic silica spheres. The general definition of an opal is a hydrated silicone dioxide mineraloid mined from a rock fissure.
Although it is not exactly rare or precious, this earthy mineraloid draws the eye with its interesting milky coloring and plant-like metallic inclusions. The Dendritic Opal is considered to be a particularly attractive and magical gem in all circles of people and has been used for a variety of things worldwide.
Their mysterious auras attract the spiritually minded, the creative, and the scientifically inspired alike. Throughout history, they have been used as symbols of power and status, adopted as mystical healing gems, integrated into all types of architectural masterpieces, showcased in art, and worn as beautiful accent pieces. Crystals have been an obsession for people all around the world for centuries.
