The Precious Metal:
This Opal is mounted in an open-back, four-prong .925 Sterling Silver pendant setting. Accompanied by an 18 inch curb chain, as pictured, in .925 Sterling Silver. If you need a 16 or 20 inch length, please leave a note as you checkout with the length wanted. The price remains the same. Other lengths may be available, contact us for availability and prices. This pendant measures just about 5/8 inch from the very top of the bail to the bottom of the stone. Please see picture #3.
Opal is a birthstone for October babies. It is said that Opals are like human emotions; with each day, you experience them different and anew.
Please
NOTE that the pictures shown here are larger than actual size to show
details.
Be sure you check and double-check the size of this item before buying. In talking with other jewelry sellers, confusion on the SIZE of the gemstone(s) seems to be the biggest reason for returns. Thank you!
Caring for Your New Jewelry: To prevent or reduce the amount of tarnish on Sterling Silver jewelry, wipe it clean with a soft cloth when you take it off, wrap it with a small piece of common tissue paper, and store it in a small plastic bag. This will almost eliminate new tarnish. If taken care of in this manner, your new jewelry should look bright and beautiful for years to come!
Be sure to read the details below before placing an order.
Especially note the paragraphs on our return policy. Thank you!

Know Before You Buy -
Before you purchase jewelry online be sure you know something about
millimeters, karats, and carats. Most complaints about jewelry seems to
center around size. "The picture isn't the same size as the item,"
someone said. "How can my ten-year-old grand-daughter wear this huge,
1.0 carat Aquamarine on her little finger?" said another. BUT, it's the
buyer who MUST be able to translate the pictures and the
measurements into whether it's the right size. As examples, be sure you know that a
pencil eraser is about 6mm in diameter, that a one carat gemstone is
about 6mm in diameter, and that 18mm is about the same diameter as a USA dime. You must also know that 24K Gold is all gold and
that 10K Gold is actually less than 1/2 Gold ... and on and on and on. A little knowledge goes a
long way in buying jewelry in an intelligent way. We just don't want
you to be disappointed. Know Before you Buy! Thank you!

Buying jewelry online can be a wonderful experience! We will do our best to make it that way for you. But, unfortunately, when buying online, you can't touch it or view it from every possible angle and the color on your monitor may vary from the true color. We know this ... and thus understand if you are not 100% satisfied with your purchase ... it's just not possible to know exactly what you are buying until it arrives in the mail. That's why we will refund your money if you wish to return an item. We simply ask that you treat us the same way you would want to be treated.
Thank you!
