Triplet Opal Drop Earrings in Gold Plated Silver · Style 727

Pair of drop earrings with oval 9mm x 7mm triplet opals, bezel set in gold plated sterling silver on hook ear wires. Each opal is hand-selected and unique.

These drop earrings feature an oval triplet opal, each measuring 9mm x 7mm, bezel set in gold plated sterling silver. A smooth metal rim wraps around the edge of each stone, holding it securely and framing it with a clean, simple outline.

A triplet opal is made from a thin slice of natural opal backed with a dark base and capped with a clear layer of quartz or glass. The dark backing helps the opal's play of colour stand out, and the clear cap protects the delicate opal beneath and gives the stone a smooth, domed finish. Triplets are not solid opal, but they are a lightweight, practical way to enjoy the colour opal is known for.

Every opal we set is hand-selected and unique, so the colours and pattern of your stones will differ from those in the photo. Each pair is chosen by our team here at Umoona Opal Mine & Museum in Coober Pedy.

Each opal hangs from a short, straight bar link below a hook-style ear wire, so the stones swing gently and sit neatly below the earlobe.
