Gemvara's fine quality fire opal jewelry is designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

Stephanie Satow was born to design jewelry. When she was young, her jeweler father taught her how to cut the heads out of pennies with a jeweler's saw. That attention to detail informs her design to this day. After completing her training in jewelry design and fabrication by the age of 18, Stephanie knew she had found her calling. Stephanie's designs are classically tailored but with a feminine touch. A strong but elegant curve often breaks the plane of her design, rounding edges. She has an instinctive feel for what will make luxurious jewelry that will work every day, with everything you wear.

The fire opal is all about unity; in fact it symbolizes the unity of two polar opposites: fire and water. Fire opal forms when water seeps into silica-rich red, hot lava, filling all its crevices. Then the silica forms a solid gel, trapping the remaining water within its structure. This vivid gem's beauty also will remind you of flames. Color is the most important factor to consider in picking the perfect fire opal and a vivid orange hue means it is of fine quality. Unlike most opal, fire opal is faceted and has brilliance, as well as a bright, day-glow, orange color. Born in the fire of Mexico's volcanoes, fire opal's natural, bright orange color is unmatched in the gem kingdom. Cut is more important than clarity when choosing your fire opal because fire opal often has a welcome haziness that actually increases the vibrancy of its color. Opal is the October birthstone and the 14th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality fire opal will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine fire opal jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
