Oval triplet opal pendant in sterling silver with a bezel setting and a simple bail. The hand-selected stone measures 6mm x 4mm, and its colours and pattern will differ from the photo.

This pendant pairs a small oval triplet opal with a neat sterling silver setting. A triplet is made from a thin slice of precious opal that is backed with a dark base layer and capped with clear quartz or glass. The cap gives the slice protection and a domed, polished surface, and the dark backing helps the opal's play of colour stand out. The stone measures 6mm x 4mm.

Every opal in this style is hand-selected and unique, so the colours and pattern of the stone you receive will differ from the photo. Triplet opals are known for flashes of spectral colour that shift as the light moves across the stone.

The oval opal sits in a bezel setting, where a smooth rim of sterling silver surrounds the stone and holds it securely. A fine beaded-style edge detail runs around the outside of the setting. A tapered, polished bail at the top lets the pendant hang from a chain. This piece comes from Umoona Opal Mine & Museum in Coober Pedy.
