Opal Charm - 10k

The Bedouins of the Sahara believed opals fell from the sky in flashes of lightning, imbued forever with their fire from the fall.  The Arabs, aware of these "thunderstones", were convinced that anyone who had the good fortune as to come into possession of one of these jewels would be protected from all bodily harm.

This charm features Boulder Opal from Australia in a 10k gold setting. This type of opal forms in cracks and seams within ironstone or sandstone boulders. It's known for its durability, unique patterns, and vibrant play of color, which is enhanced by the host rock. The charm measures 7.7mm wide by 17mm tall (26.4mm tall overall) and weighs 3.4g.
