Pink Opal with Dendrites

Dendritic Pink Opal with Dendrites

Pink Opal is a variety of common opal, a hydrated amorphous form of silica with the chemical formula SiO₂·nH₂O. Unlike precious opals, it lacks play-of-colour but is prized for its soft, milky pink hue, which comes from trace elements and microscopic inclusions, often of palygorskite or organic matter. Found primarily in Peru and Australia, Pink Opal typically forms in volcanic rock cavities and sedimentary environments. Metaphysically, this gentle stone is associated with emotional healing, love, and inner peace. It is believed to soothe the heart, calm anxiety, and help release past traumas, making it a powerful ally for those recovering from heartbreak or emotional upheaval. Often linked to the heart chakra, Pink Opal encourages compassion, self-care, and emotional balance while promoting restful sleep and quiet contemplation.
