For sale is a bib style silver necklace with Ethiopian Welo opals.   This is a bib or collar style necklace with three large oval cabochon opals.  The opals were mined in the opal fields near the Wollo Province in northern Ethiopia.  Each opal is translucent, and each has a slightly different pattern of opalescence. The center opal is extremely vibrant and full of lime green, tangerine and yellow fire.  This opal crackles with crystalline opalescence in sunlight.  The opal to the left has lots of lavender and purple fire.  The opal to the right flashes primarily tangerine and yellow.  Each opal is secure in a prong setting.  The opals are each ringed with a halo of clear, sparkly gemstones (not diamonds).  Each opal is decorated with silver cherry blossoms to create the collar or bib effect.  The necklace fastens securely with a large spring ring clasp.  This is an unusual, colorful, and extremely glamorous opal necklace.

The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)   

Necklace Length: 18 Inches
