Triplet Opal Drop Earrings in Sterling Silver · Style 520

Triplet opal drop earrings in sterling silver, each set with a hand-selected 7mm x 5mm oval opal. Sold as a pair; every opal is unique, so colours differ from the photo.

These drop earrings each feature a 7mm x 5mm oval triplet opal, framed by sweeping curved arms of sterling silver that wrap around the sides of the stone. The silver is smooth and polished, and the curves give the design a gentle sense of movement.

A triplet opal is made from a thin slice of natural opal, backed with a dark layer and capped with clear quartz or glass. The dark backing helps the opal's play of colour stand out, and the clear cap protects the thin slice. Triplets are known for lively flashes of colour that shift as the stone moves in the light. They are not solid opal.

Every opal is hand-selected and unique, so the colours and pattern of the stones you receive will differ from those in the photo. Each earring hangs from a small round ball top by a slim silver drop bar, so the opal swings freely when you move.
