Since 1991, Down to Earth Opals (DTEO) has been mining, designing and specialising in selling to the world, one-of-a-kind jewellery pieces and top gem quality loose opals.

The DTEO inventory today includes over 10,000 loose Lightning Ridge cut and carved opals. The business is internationally renowned for the highest quality Lightning Ridge opal with likely the largest collection of carved Lightning Ridge opals anywhere; and supplies everything from opal rubs, opal specimens, cut and carved stones to bespoke handmade opal jewellery.

In addition to the amazing opals, the gallery also exhibits unique jewellery and collectibles from around the world, complemented by stunning and distinctive Aboriginal artworks from the Utopia region of Australia, accompanied by hand stitched textiles featuring Aboriginal designs under a cross cultural project between Australia and Kashmir.

After two decades in the same location, DTEO expanded in April 2021 to double its floor space and completely rebuild the interior of the shop with a one-of-a-kind bespoke commercial vinyl floor featuring an image of one of the opal washing silt tanks, carefully constructed glass cabinetry and new generation lighting, in order to create a stunning state of the art spacious showroom that allows for hassle free browsing and enjoyment for all ages.

You will marvel at what you see and experience in this stunning modern gallery in the Outback. Ask to see the famous “Fire and Ice” carved opal from the acclaimed Discovery series ‘Outback Opal Hunters’ - still the most expensive single opal ever mined on the show!
