CRYSTAL OPAL – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket
Light Trapped in Stone. Colour Set in Motion.
Deep within Australia’s ancient earth lies the opal — a gemstone born of water, time, and light. The Crystal Opal is its most elusive form: translucent yet brilliant, shifting hue with every glance. From turquoise to violet, from ember to gold — it’s nature’s own kaleidoscope.
The CRYSTAL OPAL Raw Silk Jacket channels this spectral energy through an intricate, multi-dimensional weave. Threads of teal, indigo, violet, ruby, and amber intertwine across a dark base, capturing the gemstone’s living fire. The result is a fabric that seems to shimmer from within — alive with depth, movement, and light.
Handwoven over many months, each piece reveals a unique constellation of colour and texture. No two jackets are ever alike — each one a wearable gemstone, rare and radiant.
-
Handwoven raw silk – richly textured, naturally lustrous.
-
Vivid interplay of teal, violet, ruby, and gold – echoing the prismed light of a crystal opal.
-
Dynamic and versatile – equally striking with denim or tailored trousers.
-
Limited edition – only a appox 10 woven worldwide.
Much like the gemstone itself, the CRYSTAL OPAL JACKET is alive with light, colour, and character — a piece that reveals something new every time it’s worn. Rare. Daring. Undeniably Australian.

from 486 reviewsWhen I walked into the QVB store in Sydney I wasn't sure what I was looking for and chatting with Claudia really helped and I found a pair of trousers and a couple of T-shirts that I really liked and the trousers are comfortable and exactly what I need for my work. Thank you for the help with this one
I have enoyed the warmth, the lightness, and comfort. My partner likes the sexiness!
Fast, friendly, efficient, affordable service in altering my 31 year old Black Opal jacket. Excellent all round.

I’m so looking forward to wearing my Joe Bananas coats and suit around Europe for three months. Theatre, opera, concerts. I’ll get some photos to you. June, July & August
The fabric, the cut, the style. Everything to love about this. Think it will be the most versatile thing in my wardrobe.
I love the jacket
I’m keen to come in and get Will’s opinion to help perfect my next purchase
An absolutely fantastic jacket, superbly well made and eye catching. A real talking point when i wear it out and about in the UK!
My Jacket is perfect although I am not quite as perfect as the model in your photograph, which is tough on the jacket.
Love my jacket, smart or casual, travels well without creasing, hope to see you on our next visit to Sydney in 2028. Cheers
Excellent service amazing quality and quite unique, the best clothes shop in Sydney and Melbourne
I had an outstanding shopping experience with Joe Bananas Australia. From start to finish, the level of customer service and care was exceptional. The team was attentive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure everything was handled smoothly.
A special thank-you to Evan, the owner, who personally kept in touch and provided thoughtful updates regarding the delivery of my products. That level of personal attention made the experience feel truly elevated and gave me real confidence that my order was being handled with care.
I also want to recognize Francie, who provides one of the best customer shopping experiences I have ever had — both in person and remotely. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful, responsive, and makes the entire process feel personal and enjoyable.
What stood out most was the professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine customer focus. The entire experience felt easy, refined, and well cared for from beginning to end.
I highly recommend Joe Bananas Australia to anyone looking for a premium shopping experience with a team that truly values its customers.
I stopped during a short stay in Sydney and ended up purchasing 2 linen shirts. The colours were recommended by the very friendly saleswoman (Francine?). I’ve received nothing but compliments every time I’ve worn either of them. 5 stars
Perfect for our cruise in west pacific
Muscular legs… check✅ These have stretch
Muscular sporty bum …. ✅
As above
Comfort & style… ✅
Always
5 pairs of these great pants… ✅
Wife’s reaction when I wear them? ✅ 😉
Worth every cent and then some… other blokes ask me where I buy them and say they wish they were brave enough to wear colour too…. See them six months later and they’ve begun to branch out.
Life’s too bloody short after surviving cancer to dick around in beige. Joe Bananas for celebrating life … and my wife.
This is a really stylish blue design that complements my previously purchased Pink Granite and Green Mudstone jackets so that I now feel that I have one to suit almost every occasion. It adds a dash of casual elegance to occasions like concerts and special dinners and is very comfortable to wear.
