Opalite is a beautiful, luminous material that is often mistaken for a natural gemstone. However, it is primarily a man-made glass, specifically designed to mimic the iridescent glow of natural opal.

Man-Made Opalite is a glass resin made by fusing glass with metals like copper, gold, or cobalt. It is known for its "Tyndall effect"—it appears milky blue when placed against a dark background, but glows warm orange or peach when light shines through it.
