What Makes Ethiopian Opals Special?

Play-of-Color Brilliance

The hallmark of this charm is its genuine Ethiopian opal, celebrated for its mesmerizing play-of-color. This natural phenomenon, caused by light diffraction within the gem's silica structure, gives off flashes of greens, reds, blues, and purples as the charm moves with you.

Light and Durable

Despite its delicate appearance, this charm is built with a 925 sterling silver base coated in thick Gold Vermeil—a luxurious finish of high-quality gold over silver—ensuring durability while retaining an upscale gold aesthetic.

Why Choose Gold Vermeil for Your Jewelry?

Gold vermeil is a premium alternative to solid gold and gold-plated options. It offers:

• Longer-lasting gold coating due to its thicker gold layer over sterling silver

• Hypoallergenic properties—ideal for sensitive skin

• Affordable luxury with the look and feel of fine jewelry

This makes our Gold Vermeil Ethiopian Opal Charm a smart choice for both everyday wear and gifting.
