The modern word for opal is probably derived from the Sanskrit upala meaning "valuable stone." Upala was likely the root of the Greek term opallios, which means “color change," or the Roman opalus, which means "precious stone." Mayas and Aztecs had a name for opal that meant "bird of paradise stone." Based upon these names, the flashy play-of-color in opals must have mystified the ancients just as it does us today.

Some precious opals display play-of-color, a brilliant range of rainbow-like colors that sparkle when viewed from different angles. Only opals containing silica spheres in very precise arrangements and of a particular size display this rare effect, sometimes commonly referred to as "fire" or "pinfire."

Precious opals were discovered in South Australia. By the end of the 19th century, Australia had taken over as the world's primary source of precious opals.

Opal is the birthstone for the month of October, along with tourmaline. It is also the stone given to celebrate the 14th year of marriage.

An Australian aborigine legend has a more romantic explanation of an opal's play-of-color, claiming that the colorful gems were born when the Creator's footprint touched the earth at the base of a rainbow.

The ancient Greeks used to prize opals as much as they did diamonds. The opals used in ancient times came from the former Czechoslovakia. The Romans also prized opals greatly and used them widely for jewelry. They called the opal “the queen of gems” because it embodied the colors of all the other gems. They revered opal as a symbol of hope and purity and regarded it as second only to the prized emerald. In the 1st century, Roman scholar and naturalist Pliny The Elder (AD23-79) wrote that opal “has an unbelievable mixture of colors.” He praised it as the ultimate in gemstones, due to its mysterious and iridescent qualities. Opals were used for jewelry and were also carved as cameos.

Opal has been a treasured gemstone around the world. The Aztecs have long mined opal in Central and South America. The Romans called Opal “Cupid Paederos”, a child as beautiful as love”, and wore it a symbol of hope, purity, and love, believing it had power to cure one from disease. Opal in the Middle Ages was used to treat diseases of the eye, and in later times, blond women used to wear opal earrings and hair ornaments, believing it would keep their hair from going gray. The crown of the Holy Roman Emperor contained a striking Opal, called “Orphanus”. Described "as though pure white snow flashed and sparkled with the color of bright ruddy wine, and was overcome by this radiance", this opal was said to guard the imperial honor.
