Culled from Laiiis' Column, "Evining Post" 22/11/22. Do you realise how silly superstitions often spoil the pleasures of life? Who would refuse pleasure offered on the 13th? Yet the glorious Black Opal is worn only by the few because of a curious superstition which has grown about it from its introduction into fiction too years ago by Sir Walter Scott. There is no more beautiful gem than the tainbow-hued Opal, and undoubtedly it would be worn more but for this fallacy. The Black Opal with its wonderful beauty and ever fascinating loveliness gives endless pleasure and delight. See our window display of these beautiful gems, and do not allow silly superstition to prevent you from having the pleasure of wearing one' of these charming ornaments with its wonderful ever changing effects by day and by night.
