Bolder Opals are usually thin seams or patches of precious opal left in their matrix and cut into cabochons. This bolder opal features several thin seams of opal in an ironstone matrix. The opal seams flash blue when the light hits them. The cabochon is encased in .999 fine silver and is seated on .925 sterling silver. The pendant hangs from an 18 inch long sterling silver 2.2 mm light weight flat cable chain with a 2 inch extender. The extender is made of the same sterling silver chain and is finished with a clear Swarovski crystal. All jump rings have been soldered closed for safety.
