Feeling and perceiving the world around is a joy of being alive and sentient. These 2" sterling silver drop earrings cradle Boulder opal, lightweight gemstones with veins of pure color. Boulder opal features thin sheets of brilliant opal within its dark ironstone host rock. It forms only in the state of Queensland, Australia and is prized for the outstanding play of color contrasted with the dark matrix of the host. The Boulder opal drops in these earrings show thin streams of color crossing the stone, a delight of color in the uniform darkness, surrounded by circles of shining sterling silver and with sterling silver earwires.

Cost: $56.00 USD
