Pink opals are a popular and common type of natural gemstone. But they don’t show the same ‘fire’ you may initially think of as being characteristic of opals. Generally, pink opals are opaque and a baby pink, coral, blush, or cream color and are known for diverse, vibrant hues in several varieties, the most valuable variety being pale pink opals. The most coveted pale pink opals are sometimes lovingly referred to as the ‘peppermint candy stone.’

Most pink opals come from Peru, though they can be found in other South American countries, the United States, and Australia. They are mined and polished as other gemstones and diamonds are. They make excellent necklaces, rings, earrings, and are often considered to have healing properties.

Pink opals are popular because of their beauty, symbolism, and variation. Read on to learn everything you need to know about these stunning pink gems.

What Are Pink Opals?

Pink opals are a natural type of gemstone that contain palygorskite and chalcedony. Palygorskite is a phyllosilicate that resembles opal, while white chalcedony is a microcrystalline quartz mineral. These opals are also composed of hydrated silica and have a water content that makes up 6-10% of the gem. Iron and aluminum contribute to their natural radiance. And they have higher contents of iron than other opals, which is the component that gives them their distinctive pinkness that can range from bubblegum to a subtly pinky-white.
