Mexico has named the Fire Opal the stone of the country, for good reason as this stone is rich in Mexico’s history. The Mayas and the Aztecs sincerely loved this stone as they used it prominently in their rituals and mosaics. The iridescent, fiery, prismatic reds and oranges of the Fire Opal were first introduced to Europe by the Conquistadors of Mexico. The Mayas and Aztecs sent these Conquistadors with Mexican Fire Opal stones for a positive outlook on their travels, overcoming shyness and uncertainty in what was to come.
