14k Gold Australian Black Boulder Opal Earrings w Diamonds

For sale is a pair of 14k yellow gold earrings with Australian black boulder opals.  These black opals were mined in the Andamooka opal fields in South Australia.  These hand-crafted earrings are beautifully made.  Each opal is a large, flat triangle that is completely framed in gold.  The opals have slightly different patterns of color and opalescence.  The darker stone flashes with lots of cherry red on the top half with varied shades of blue opalescence on the lower half.  The lighter stone glitters with peacock blue, lime green, tangerine and lemon yellow over the entire surface of the stone.  In dim light these opals are quite subtle, but in sunlight you see iridescent, glorious washes of color.  Each opal is completely backed in gold.  Each opal dangles from a shepherd's hook with a tiny bezel set diamond at the top.  The large size, vibrant fire, and beautiful craftsmanship make these earrings a wonderful find.

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