    At GemsUSA.com, we import large parcels of opals from Lightning Ridge in Australia. Probably the most famous opal producing area in Australia, Lightning Ridge is famous for its black opals. By buying in quantity, we can offer our customers great prices and a large assortment of parcels, stones and finished goods.

    All our rough opal is divided into parcels or individual stones as applicable. Individual stones tend to be large specialty pieces. Most parcels are similar quality and grade material. We also list some starter material. If you have particular needs, e-mail us and we'll try to meet your needs.

    Our finished opal is primarily free form, one of a kind pieces. These stones are cut to maximize the beauty and artistic potential of the stone. Proper setting of any stones is important. Opal can be easily cracked if set improperly. Please read our setting information section.

    We combine great pricing with great quality and quick shipping to meet OUR ONLY GOAL: YOUR SATISFACTION. We take pride in our service. Any questions or suggestions? Please contact us.
