There are worlds within every Opal.
Our Beginning
Opal Earth was once initiated as a humble family business with a united passion for our Earth’s many, abundant treasures. Since 1961, Soteris & Suzanne Andreou have sourced & collected some of the finest Gems and rare Opals found by mankind.
Sofia Andreou, their daughter, is actively keeping the family legacy alive with her refreshingly directional, sustainable and deeply personal approach to working with each individual Opal and gemstone.
As seen on Discovery Channel’s “Outback Opal Hunters”, Sofia has recommenced Opal Earth Opal mining with a heart-felt commitment to responsible land care & re-generation projects.
“We consider ourselves - both you and I, to be guardians of our beautiful Earth. The Opals are pieces of our great Earth’s history - they hold secrets of creation long before us. It is important to our family that we give back to the Earth for all that had been freely given to us.“
With a commitment to sustainability, all pieces are locally made from responsibly sourced materials such as; copper, bronze, rose, yellow & white solid gold, as well as 925 Sterling Silver.

Our Approach
“Every opal has a history — from the sea it was birthed from, to the life of the wearer. We design each of our collections with the intention of creating pieces that can be passed down through generations, with minimal waste and minimal carbon footprint. Our Opals are crafted for millions of years by the ancient seas of Australia , with expertise only mother Earth could craft.”
