This refinement in texture reflects our dedication to attention to detail and adherence to standards of perfection. The opal's polish serves not only to enhance its outward beauty but also acts as a functional enhancement by providing an incredibly smooth tactile experience and increasing its visual clarity to eye-clean standards.
