Opal
Girl's given name
Opal is a gemstone prized for its iridescent play of colors—flashes of red, blue, green, and orange that shift as the stone moves.
Unlike most gems, opals aren't crystalline but form from silica and water.
They range from milky white to black, with black opals considered most valuable.
She wore her grandmother's opal ring.
