The Opal

Black opal has a dark body that makes its play of colour look electric. Flashes of green, blue and orange move across the stone as you turn it. This one is a 1.68 carat oval cabochon, 9 × 6 mm.

The GIA's opal guide explains how that play of colour forms. No two opals flash the same way, so this black opal pendant is one of a kind.

A Cocktail Glass Pendant

The tall, narrow outline measures 8 × 30 mm. It hangs like a long-stemmed glass raised for a toast. That makes this cocktail glass pendant a natural gift for celebrations.

An Opal Ruby Pendant with Diamonds

Rubies totalling 0.35 carats add warm red at both ends. Diamonds totalling 0.20 carats and a touch of emerald complete the design. The colours make this opal ruby pendant read like a party in miniature.

An October Birthstone Gift

Opal is a birthstone for October. A black opal pendant is a dramatic way to mark it.

Care

Opal rates 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, softer than most gems. Keep your black opal pendant away from water, oils and perfume. Ethiopian opal can absorb liquids and change colour for a while. Wipe it with a dry, soft cloth.
