This is because precious opals are amorphous solids, which are very different from crystals. On one hand, where crystals are organized in a regular lattice pattern, while on the other, amorphous solids like opals have an unorganized lattice, which is why they react with light differently and exhibit a beautiful play of colors. Because of the high demand for opals, scientists have discovered ways to synthesize opals artificially and they know how to create synthetic opals. In this blog, we will discuss what you need to know as you invest in a synthetic opal ring. But first, let us get to know what synthetic opals are.
