Sterling silver crocodile pendant set with a hand-selected 6mm x 3mm marquise triplet opal. Each opal is unique, so colours and pattern will differ from the photo.
This little crocodile pendant is cast in sterling silver, with a curled tail, four stubby legs and an open-jawed head. The back and tail are finished with a beaded, scale-like texture that gives the animal plenty of character. A marquise-shaped (pointed oval) opal sits in the centre of the body, held in a bezel-style setting, and a smooth bail at the top lets the pendant hang from a chain.
The stone is a triplet opal. A triplet is a very thin slice of precious opal backed with a dark base and capped with a clear layer of quartz or glass. The cap protects the opal and deepens its colour, and triplets are known for bright, lively play of colour at an accessible size. A triplet is not a solid opal.
Every opal we use is hand-selected and unique, so the colours and pattern of the stone you receive will differ from the one in the photo. The photo shows the design of the crocodile and its setting only. The stone measures 6mm x 3mm.
