Pair of triplet opal stud earrings with 6mm x 4mm oval stones in sterling silver, each set in an oval bezel with open looped petal-style surrounds. Every opal is hand-selected.
These stud earrings pair a small oval triplet opal with a graceful open-work sterling silver setting. Each stone measures 6mm x 4mm and sits in a smooth oval bezel, surrounded by looping silver bands that curve outward like petals and give the design a light, airy 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 cap protects the opal and deepens its colour, and triplets are known for lively play of colour that flashes as the earrings catch the light. Because a triplet is a layered stone, it is not a 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 pair comes from Umoona Opal Mine & Museum in Coober Pedy, South Australia.
