Bold Boulder Opal Pendant, Dramatic Peruvian Opal Necklace, 3 Stone Opal Pendant Silver, Handmade Artisan Jewelry
Description
The bottom stone is the one that stops you. Two teal-blue opal cabochons lead the eye down through the pendant, their color clean and saturated, and then the third stone arrives: a triangular cabochon where vivid teal banding runs in parallel stripes against warm reddish-brown host rock, the matrix and the opal in direct and striking conversation. It's the same material as the stones above it, but it has a different vibe.
Each cabochon sits in a sterling silver bezel set into a textured oval backing with a dark patina, with silver spheres scattered across the surface in an organic arrangement that varies from stone to stone. The three sections link together through small rings, the whole composition suspended from a simple flat bail. At just under 3 inches long the pendant has presence without weight, and wears as well layered as it does alone.
Hallmarked Blue Piranha and .925. The pendant measures just under 3 inches (7.6 cm) long from the top of the bail to the bottom of the pendant, and ¾ inch (1.7 cm) wide. Weight is 8.6 grams.
Each pendant is available without a chain, so you may use your own if you prefer. If you want to add a chain, I offer different lengths and styles. Every chain comes with a 2-inch extender so you can vary the length. Please choose your chain from the options at checkout.
Your purchase arrives gift boxed, presented in a soft pouch with a story card.
Good for: the collector who wants movement, provenance, and a stone that captures the attention. The jewelry lover who would rather have one remarkable thing than a drawer full of safe ones. The woman who wants a piece that starts a conversation without trying to.

About Peruvian Opal:
Peruvian opal is found in the Andes Mountains of Peru, one of the few sources in the world producing opal in this particular blue-green range. Its color runs from bright teal to soft aqua-green, and the stone can be fully opaque or lightly translucent depending on the specimen. When the opal remains in its host rock matrix rather than being extracted from it, the finished stone carries the warm brown of the surrounding material alongside the blue-green, producing the kind of color contrast and pattern variation that solid-color opal can't replicate. Peruvian opal is not a fire opal and does not display the spectral flash associated with Australian varieties — its appeal is in its color, its translucency, and the relationship between the opal and its matrix.
