Although there are many gemstones to choose from, opals are an extremely popular choice for pendants. Known as the Queen of Gemstones, opals are available in a range of colors which makes it easy to choose one which reflects your taste. It is the natural form of the opal itself which particularly lends itself to embellishing the female neckline.
The uniqueness of each opal lets you choose a design, color and shape that suits your style and it is extremely satisfying to know that your opal pendant is truly one of a kind. Sterling silver is a popular choice for opal pendants due to the increasing gold prices. Silver particularly compliments pendants made with boulder, fire, white and Ethiopian opals.
White opals are the most common type of opals and have a milky white body with a rainbow-like iridescence. Depending on the angle you are looking from, they can create the illusion of a color transformation.
Black opals have a dark grey or black color. For an opal to be classified as a black opal it must be opaque when held up to the light. The semi-black opal has a similar color to black opals but is translucent when held up to the light. Black opals are often set in 18k gold and are surrounded by diamonds to contrast with their color.
Other popular opals include the crystal opal which is translucent and the Mexican opal which as a red/brown color in contrast to boulder opals which vary in color. Perhaps the most dramatic of all are fire opals. These have a bright yellow, bright orange or bright red background color.
To look after your opal pendant when you aren't wearing it put it in a sealed plastic bag with a damp cloth in case of drying out. Whatever you do, don't leave opal jewelry for a long time under direct sunlight, for example, on a dressing table as this could result in the stone cracking if the heat builds up.
If your opal is beginning to look a bit lack-luster and has lost its shine - don't despair. To remedy this, we recommend getting it professionally polished. This will restore the smoothness of the opal and enhance its shine. It can also take care of any unwanted scratches it may have acquired. With a little care opals will last a lifetime.
Opals are chosen for their patterns, colors, and how they match your individual sense of style and color palette. A milky opal pendant can look very classy on a black evening dress but if your style is more extrovert a fire opal may be the opal of choice.
Opal pendants are highly desirable and let you express your personality and style through an exquisite gemstone. Which one will you choose?
