This gorgeous gemstone features an excellent square shape and a strong vein of Opal through the center of the stone. The stone lights up with intense purple and blue sections, contrasting beautifully against the nicely polished tan Ironstone. The Opal has been artistically wrapped with gold wire, creating a one-of-a-kind pendant ready to wear.

Provenance: Ex. Rod Griffin
