Opal Myth: Opals are extremely fragile and will break very easily.

Fact: It's true that opals are more fragile than most gemstones, however, they're not as fragile as some people imagine. Opals are about the same hardness as glass, so imagine you're wearing a piece of glass and you'll get the idea.

Did you know that gold was the metal of choice for braces circa 1900?

Gold is malleable, so it was easy to shape it into an orthodontic appliance. Because gold is malleable, it stretches easily. Consequently, patients had to see their orthodontist frequently for adjustments that kept treatment on track.
