The birthstone for October is the Opal, an unusual gemstone that reflects a rainbow of colors known as 'play of color'. The five main types of opal are white, black, fire, boulder and crystal; according to their background color. The origin of the name comes from Sanskrit upala meaning 'precious stone' and Greek opallios meaning 'to see a change of color'. Opals are believed to be associated with imagination, fidelity, creativity, innocence and hope.
