Mexican Fire Opal can display intense play of light in many colours, but also occurs translucent orange with no play of light. Faceted pieces are often the latter.
Birthstone for Pisces, Sagittarius, Leo, Libra and Cancer

Properties: A powerful energiser and warming stone, Fire Opal also facilitates change and “moving on”. It can support underlying energy levels to avoid “burn-out”. Use with care, as it can sometimes be overwhelming to those who are weak from long-term illness. Fire Opal can also magnify and dislodge deep-seated emotions, allowing us to let go of the past, although the results can sometimes be explosive.
