Description

I don’t work with opal much these days but I was impressed with these larger size nuggets of boulder opal which have little sparks of colour in them.   To emphasise those sparks, I have added a wide variety of gems in the same tones as in the adjacent opals and added lashing of lovely white freshwater cultured pearls as well!   Add in some 12ct gold fill accents (and clasp) and the result is a piece of jewellery that is both classic and different and can be appreciated for its style from a distance and for the opal’s hide and seek colour closer up.   (In fact you might spend quite a bit of time gazing at the opal looking for the beautiful sparks of colour!)

Crafted with boulder opal, pearls and gems of sapphire, tanzanite, apatite, amethyst, citrine, peridot, carnelian and Swiss blue topaz.
A comfortable length of 24.5”/ 62cm, the necklace can be made shorter but not longer on request.
Abebi is an African name meaning ‘blessing’
