"Faerie" Pendant (Australian Opal, Mixed Gemstones, 22k Gold)

This "Faerie" pendant features a stunning 108 carat Australian opal "natural doublet" centerpiece, with vibrant galactic colors and captivating iridescence reminiscent of a Hubble photo of a supernova! Hand-crafted from luxurious 22k matte-finished gold, this masterpiece is beautifully complemented by a striking array of richly-hued garnets, colorful tourmalines, and brilliant sapphires, each adding their own sparkle and depth to this one-of-a-kind piece. The natural ironstone opal host-rock is visible on the back, proving its provenance of Lightning Ridge mine in NSW Australia. The design features a unique hinged clip for secure and easy wear. At approximately 13cm/ 4 1/4" long x 1 1/2" wide, this one-of-a-kind piece is for collectors who prize unique jewelry works of art inspired by the Belle Epoque/Art Nouveau feminine design mastery of Lalique and Tiffany. One of the designer's top 20 "Magnum Opus" designs, this museum-quality treasure-beyond-measure cannot be replicated.
