The term "crystal opal" refers to any kind of opal (i.e. black opal, white opal, semi-black opal) which has a transparent, translucent, or semi-translucent body. This is also referred to as the "diaphaneity" of a stone. If light is able to pass through the stone, or you can see through an opal, then you are probably looking at a crystal opal. Crystal opals can display any colour of the spectrum in a beautiful play of colour. Crystal Opal is transparent or extremely translucent and has a variety of diffracted colors. As crystal Opal is transparent, a black backing can be placed behind the Opal to allow the bright natural colors of the Opal to appear. Some of the most appealing Opals are crystal Opals.
