These earrings are elegant, delicate and flashy. They feature hammered sterling silver rings with a series of five small Ethiopian Welo Opals dangling below. The opals are fiery with greens, golds and a bit of red here and there. All wires and ear wires are sterling silver. These earrings are made to order so the ring texture and opals may look slightly different than the photos, although size, opal fire and overall appearance will be very similar. Opal is one of October's birthstones!
SIZE: These earrings hang just under 2 inches. The silver ring is about 1/2 inch in diameter. The little opals measure from about 2mm to 5mm in diameter. Each earring weighs between 1 and 2 grams.
MATERIALS: Sterling silver, Ethiopian Welo Opal
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from various sources): Opal is said to enhance imagination and creativity. It is also supposed to help ease the difficulties of change. Opal is one of October's birthstones.
