FLAME OPAL – Handwoven Bouclé Raw Silk Jacket
A Blaze of Colour. A Burst of Brilliance.
Much loved for their iridescent intensity, Fire and Flame Opals are gemstones that appear to glow from within, igniting in brilliant golds, reds, and oranges—their flame-like brilliance unmatched by any other opal. Unlike the classic play-of-colour opal, Flame Opals possess a transparent clarity, yet still flash with surprising bursts of pink, violet, teal, and emerald when viewed from different angles.
Inspired by this rare gemstone, the Flame Opal Bouclé Raw Silk Jacket is woven with loops of silk yarn—a technique that teases out seemingly endless variations of colour, adding depth, texture, and movement to an already striking weave. With its dominant glowing orange and gold hues, this jacket is a true showstopper, designed for those who embrace bold, unforgettable style.
Like the Joe Bananas Black Opal weaves, this jacket is incredibly versatile—pair it with any colour under the sun, and it will always shine.
HOW TO WEAR IT
- Dress It Up – Pair with stone dress trousers, a bright blue or teal shirt, and dark tan shoes & belt for a refined yet dynamic look.
- Dress It Down – Keep it fun with dark chinos and a bright pink or green T-shirt or polo, letting the jacket’s electric energy do the talking.
FUN FACT:
95% of the world’s opals come from Australia, yet Flame Opals remain one of the country’s rarest opal varieties—a true hidden treasure.
LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION
Handwoven over 200-300 days, with only 8-10 jackets per weave, this piece is as rare and mesmerizing as the Flame Opal itself.
- Handwoven raw silk in a bouclé weave – rich in texture, depth, and intrigue.
- A glowing mix of oranges, golds, and fiery tones – capturing the natural brilliance of Flame Opals.
- A jacket as bold and versatile as the gem that inspired it – striking, unforgettable, and utterly unique.
Like the Flame Opal, this jacket is pure energy—radiant, dynamic, and impossible to ignore. Extremely limited—secure yours before it vanishes into legend.
