Very pretty stone! Again a opal doublet, dark blue with blue and a little green flash. 4.31 Carats


Sunday, April 29, 2012

I was asked to make a custom piece for someone whom I know loves opals. Now I need to pick one out that matches her personality and color likes. So far, I have been on the money with the stones people would pick. I would choose the stone I think they would want, then add another couple to the list and ask the to pick the stone they want. Each person has picked the same stone I thought they would want (so far anyways!). I hope I make something good for her, she means a lot to me!

 Lovely 14.63 caret Boulder Opal. This stone is so pretty all on it's own. But it's endowed even further with beauty as it flashes an almost flourescent purple, almost making the stone glow at times. A very nice piece of jewelry!

Shot these over as the new pictures are of a higher quality and give some scale to the pieces:
Lovely Opal Doublet, approx. 5ct. Sky blue with green flash

Boulder Opal browns/reds and purple flash

This is a 'lab created' opal...like a cubic zirconia is to a diamond

BEAUTIFUL pale blue opal w red/yellow/orange/blue and green flash.


Another shot of this stone to show the colors it flashes



Another shot of blue and green opal doublet to show size and color
14.63ct Boulder Opal set in 930 silver (Argentium silver)
Boulder Opal pendant, 14.63 caratsThis is a piece that I have to say really is beautiful.
The boulder opal's pattern is lovely all on it's own, but it is enhanced further by almost flourescent purple streaks that almost make the stone glow at times. It's difficult to try to capture those purple flashes with a camera. This is a pendant that I really think came out nice!



Update

The Star Sapphire Earrings and the Blue Opal and Citrine Pendant have been sold. Thank you for the interest in these two items. We will be posting new items a little later, and will have the etsy store up and running soon as well.
