Mick Opals was founded in 2023 by gemstone and crystal enthusiasts, Mick and Jody. After the loss of their 14-year-old son, Ben, in 2019, they leaned into the Opal and gemstone world, finding a deeper profound passion for Opals.
Based in Queensland, Australia, Mick Opals has grown into a small family business with one of their daughters managing administrative tasks. As a registered Australian company, they are dedicated to sharing the beauty of opals with the world, blending personal resilience with their love for quality gemstones.
