Yelp.com Review - by Pickle P.

3.0 of 5 stars. Fire Opal is certainly a needed thing in a place like Boston where "craft" tends toward pottery and Bed Bath and Beyond means "design." Hooray to Fire Opal for representing independent designer/makers...

Beautiful and unique, but too expensive for me

I had a great time browsing in Fire Opal, but was disapointed with the high prices. The store has a strong NYC artsy vibe which I loved, and some truly unique items. My favorite was the candle stick...

Yelp.com Review - by Max B.

5.0 of 5 stars. An art store, kind of, in that it sells art, but it's certainly not a gallery. Fire Opal has pottery, jewelry, wall art, mirrors, clocks, and some amazing sculpture set around a spacious and gorgeous...
