Triplet Opal Stud Earrings in Sterling Silver · Style 539

Pair of triplet opal stud earrings in sterling silver, each with a 7mm x 5mm oval opal in a four-claw setting within a pointed oval surround. Every opal is hand-selected and unique.

These stud earrings are set with a triplet opal in each, an oval stone measuring 7mm x 5mm. A triplet is made from a 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 gives a smooth, glossy dome. Triplets are known for the flashes of spectral colour that move across the surface as the earring catches the light.

Every opal is hand-selected and unique. The colours and pattern of the stones you receive will differ from those in the photo, which shows the design of the earrings only.

Each opal sits in a four-claw setting in sterling silver. The claws hold the oval stone securely above a pointed, leaf-shaped surround with a raised polished rim and a recessed centre. The result is a neat, classic stud that suits daily wear. These earrings come from Umoona Opal Mine & Museum in Coober Pedy, South Australia.
