Natural black fire opal necklace designed with an optional element of a flower attached to the classic 4 prong cabochon pendant setting in rose gold finish over 925 sterling silver. The necklace features and a top quality AAA/AAAA grade black opal cabochon gemstone in 12x10mm size weighing approximately over 3 Ct in a polished cabochon cut with warm colored theme of the fire colors with a lot of red fire over dark base tone- the opal coloring looks best with the rose gold finish and the addition of the flower design makes it very elegant and pretty- suitable for a romantic gift or just something that might appeal to anyone being a versatile classic piece that can be made in any colored finish in solid 925 sterling silver.
🟪 THE OPAL:
▪️Origin: Earth-mined in a environmentally sustainable way, natural, without any chemical dyes;
▪️Handpicked, having no inclusions or defects;
▪️ Professionally hand cut to bring out the best fire colors;
▪️Solid gemstone - not a doublet or triplet, so it will not fall apart into pieces;
▪️ Beautiful play of color, a lot of red fire is visible (the rarest color in opals), dark base tone;
▪️ Selected to match the listing photos and description to be of equal or higher value but each opal is going to look different from one another in their coloring and fire patterns, which is normal variation;
▪️ Weight is approximately over 3 Ct for a 12x10mm dimensions.
🟪THE SETTING:
▪️The pendant setting is a classic 4 prong made with solid 925 sterling silver and especially designed for long term wear with rhodium/white gold finish or 14k rose or yellow gold finish over silver which prevents tarnishing and offers resistance to micro scratches that occur during wear and tear.
▪️Metal finish that has a plating layer over solid 925 sterling silver is a new industry standard and requires minimum to no maintenance effort . Compared to the traditional 925 sterling silver, this is a significant upgrade, so silver jewelry finally can be enjoyed longer and have a lustrous polished look to it, which does not require constant cleaning and never looks so perfectly smooth and made with hypoallergenic precious metals no matter what color finish you
choose.
▪️The necklace can be made with any other style that you can find in another listing or just a listing image from the store gallery. You can choose to have a classic pendant necklace with just a chain in any length you prefer - I am open to suggestions as long as they come from my own shop photos, so I have everything in stock for you!
▪️Solid gold version is listed separately, and is available as a classic pendant necklace only - you can send me a message with your inquiry if you are interested:)
🟪 THE CHAIN:
The chain has the same upgraded finish over solid 925 sterling silver as the pendant setting, and features an extension chain with an opal bead attached to its end.
This little detail surprisingly makes a significant difference: the necklace will look so exquisite when you present it in a jewelry box arrangement: a truly beautiful unique gemstone with a matching bead on the side looks like a very thoughtful gift that you can present to anyone and be certain that it will be loved and appreciated.
The necklace is unique and original enough but it is also versatile elegant and is made with great craftsmanship - enjoy it with someone special or make a great first impression - you will be happy with it 🎁
The fire has a wide range of colors with mostly red color being dominant, which is the feature that is being sought for in black opals and adds value to the necklace.
The fire is very bright and full of intense flashes of color observed during movement as the opal interacts with the light.

🟣OPAL PHOTO DISCLAIMER:
▪️Each Opal is very unique and special. Just like you are. That’s why we love them.
But this gemstone has certain features that make it very hard or impossible to represent them via photos and videos. Please keep this in mind when you are looking through the available items and the listing images. The item you will receive is going to LOOK DIFFERENT from the listing photos and videos, but THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NORMAL and is to be expected from any natural opal due to its very nature and physical properties;
▪️Being the true chameleons, natural opals change their appearance significantly depending on the slightest changes in the lighting environment, camera angle, movement and everything around them.
Even if the two opals have extremely similar features, they still will offer their own unique way of interacting with the light, which is what defines this gemstone and gives it its "personality". And just like people, opal’s personalities are very unique and are ALWAYS CHANGING depending upon their surroundings;
▪️The play of color in any natural opal is constantly changing following every subtle movement that results in a different way the light interacts with the the opal’s complex inner structure to produce what we call visible “fire”. This interaction happens as a process in time occurring very quickly, so every moment the play of color looks completely different from the moment before that. Even the same opal is going to look different from its own photos depending on the current lighting environment that exists around it;
▪️Even making a video does not provide a solution to this problem either, because of the exposure related artifacts that either dampen all color or exaggerate it in some cases. because camera settings cannot readjust as fast as the opal can change its appearance in response to the changes in the light angle;

Frequently Asked Questions
Materials
The main materials used in my jewelry are Ethiopian Welo opals of high quality grade (usually AAA), which are selected for each stone’s unique brilliance and coloring that correspond to the higher market value and offer an objectively better choice for a buyer compared to many other opal jewelry designers that opt for average quality opals to maintain the lower price advantage. I also use high quality moissanite which is a sustainable alternative to natural diamond and is the future of engagement and wedding jewelry. I am happy to help people discover its potential to satisfy their most intricate of desires when looking for the perfect engagement ring and leave diamonds to be the relic of the old times when cruelty was a social norm.

Natural opal Photo Disclaimer
Any natural opal is constantly changing its play of color and its entire appearance in response to the changes in its environment particularly shifts in the light angle, its intensity and brightness as well as the light source (natural light causes significant attenuation in opal’s color, while artificial light brings out the most of the hidden beauty within an opal). This is a natural property of this gemstone, and it is expected that the same opal will look completely different from the listing images if the surrounding light is different from the exact moment when the original photos were taken. Opal is a true chameleon and its we love it for this particular quality, but it can be misleading to a new opal owner. Please keep this in mind.
General Return Policy
YOU WILL ALWAYS RECEIVE HELP IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR ORDER!
All jewelry items that have a defect, is damaged or is significantly different from the listing description are eligible for a refund/exchange/repair. Please CONTACT ME WITHIN 3 DAYS AFTER DELIVERY to request help with your order, SHIP THE ITEM BACK WITHIN 7 DAYS using a free return label after your return is confirmed.
Make sure that the ID TAG IS ATTACHED to the jewelry and the item is in its ORIGINAL, UNWORN, UNALTERED, UNWASHED condition in order to receive a guaranteed refund. However, there are instances when returns are not accepted due to the subjective nature of the issue that the buyer has with the product they purchased. Please see post below ⬇️
Care Instructions
Natural opal requires extreme caution when using liquids, because it can absorb any liquid substance and it might cause permanent damage to the gemstone.
Keep your opal jewelry in a clean dark space, preferably in an air tight container when you are not wearing it.
Do not wear it to do manual work, play sports, swim, wash hands, exercise vigorously or when sweating. Take it off before showering, sleeping or doing anything strenuous.
Keep your opal jewelry away from sudden changes in temperature or from severe cold or hot weather.
Do not wash, submerge in liquid, clean using liquid jewelry or ultrasonic cleaners.
Most importantly: protect your opals from moisture at any cost, because this is the #1 contributing factor to opal jewelry damag
Ethiopian Opal Coloring
All opals I sell are exclusively Ethiopian Welo opals that are earth-mined, natural, solid and are free of invasive treatments that could significantly alter their appearance or reduce market value. I NEVER use doublets/triplets opals, artificially enhanced, lab created, or man made opals.
However, it is well known that Ethiopian opal does not occur in black variety, so it has to be understood at all times that heat application is needed to change the base tone to the dark black color while leaving the other properties and color appearance of an opal intact and not affected by heat. A heat treated gemstone is still considered NATURAL, and almost all colored gems are heat treated without any effect on their value or popularity.
My shop is a single person run business
Please keep in mind that I run the store on my own and have no other person to replace me with tasks that I am not able to handle at any point when I am working on other aspects of the business.
