Australian Coober Pedy opals — 4.2 carats set across an articulated drop in 22 karat gold, with 1.75mm royal blue sapphires running alongside them. Coober Pedy opal has a particular quality: a light, clear base that lets color play through it without the darkness of boulder opal or the instability of crystal. Against the sapphire blue, that play of color reads as complex and shifting rather than simply pretty. The 22 and 18 karat gold moves through the piece — settings in 22, ear wire and links in 18 — studio milled and hand forged by Carrie.
Slender at 6.93mm wide, 59.5mm long. The depth is minimal. These sit close and move well.
One of a kind.
