  9. Opals are my birthstone and I got my first one on my 6th birthday. I was fascinated by the array of colors and I loved the smooth surface. This fascination led me to get my first gem encyclopedia (for children of course ^_^) and to start my own semi-prescious stone collection. After all these years, opals are still my favorite gemstone. I love how no two are exactly alike in either color or pattern. They are each uniquely beautiful.
