Unusual boulder opal heart with subtle dreamy swirls of green and blue, with a single striking red fleck glowing at its center (see video for full play of color). The natural movement within the stone gives it depth and personality, making this piece truly one of a kind.
I set the opal in fine and sterling silver, then added a warm copper bale for a subtle mixed-metal contrast. The pendant hangs from a sterling silver oval chain. The entire piece has been oxidized and gently brushed, creating a rich, rustic patina that enhances the organic beauty of the stone.
The opal, including the bale, measures approximately 27mm x 25mm.
The necklace measures 18 inches in total length.
