oxide deposits that form fern-like or tree-branch patterns inside the stone. Most commercial material comes from Madagascar. Unlike precious opal, dendritic opal does not show rainbow play of color. Its beauty lies in the striking natural dendrites against the milky opal base. The stone is soft (Mohs 5.5 to 6.5), water-bearing, and can fade in prolonged sunlight. The dendrites are not fossilized plants, they are pure mineral formations that mimic organic shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ca class=\"bb-ch-cta\" href=\"\/pages\/crystal-guide-dendritic-opal\"\u003eRead the full Dendritic Opal Crystal Guide →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bb-ch-image\" style=\"background-image:url('https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/6107\/9588\/collections\/dendritic-opal-polished-heart-aa-madagascar-hero_665cb22c-c245-49e7-be37-3ba5ed527e43.webp?v=1779231405');\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cscript\u003e\n(function(){\nvar hero=document.querySelector('.bb-ch');\nif(!hero) return;\nvar toHide=['.cc-breadcrumb','.cc-title','.cc-trust-bar','.collection-hero__title','.collection-header__title','.page-title','.page__title'];\ntoHide.forEach(function(sel){document.querySelectorAll(sel).forEach(function(el){if(!hero.contains(el))el.style.display='none';});});\ndocument.querySelectorAll('h1').forEach(function(h1){if(!hero.contains(h1))h1.style.display='none';});\nvar wrapper=document.querySelector('.crystal-collection-wrapper');\nif(wrapper){wrapper.style.maxWidth='none';wrapper.style.padding='0';}\n})();\n\u003c\/script\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"dendritic-opal-polished-hearts-aa-madagascar","title":"Dendritic Opal Polished Hearts | AA Grade | Madagascar","description":"\u003cp\u003eHand-selected Grade AA Dendritic Opal heart, ethically sourced from Atsinanana, Madagascar.

Mineraloid\/material term (not a single crystalline mineral species). It naturally forms in hydrated silica precipitated at low temp (volcanic or sedimentary). Commercial material is typically sourced through open-cut or underground mining; careful hand extraction. On the market: Opalite is man‑made glass; synthetic opal is common in jewelry.
