The lore of opals is plentiful, just like the variety of colors found in this fascinating, kaleidoscopic gem. The Romans believed it was the most powerful of gems and named the stone "opalus". The Greeks thought opals gave them the power of prediction. Europeans saw a symbol of hope, purity and truth. One famous opal "The Burning of Troy" was given by Napoleon to Josephine. Neapolitan Opal(tm) features an intriguing play of background colors combined with a captivating iridescence which blends deliciously with Le Vian(R) flavors of gold and diamonds, especially Strawberry Gold(R) and Chocolate Diamonds(R). Natural fancy brown diamonds are available in shades from champagne to cognac to Chocolate Diamonds(R), Le Vian(R)'s original brand of natural fancy color brown diamonds. Chocolate Diamonds(R) are naturally flavored, the depth of their color determined by the tremendous amount of pressure the diamond receives from deep within the earth. Nude Diamonds(tm) are neutral skin tone, natural color diamonds that look colorless, take a high polish and offer a great value that is a fraction of the price of white diamonds. Le Vian(R) utilizes a very stringent selection process, choosing from a select range of high clarity natural faint and light brown diamonds with a touch of blush, the top of production, that are C2-C3 in color and SI or VS in clarity. - Shop the latest Le Vian rings and other jewelry on BlackSkinny.com
