African Green Opal & Carnelian Necklace

This unique, long necklace features an African Green Opal pendant, accented by Thai silver pendant and bead and lots of Carnelian chips. I love the rich colors in African Green Opal, anything from rust red to brown and dark green. Other beads include more African Green Opal, Carnelian, Citrine and Chinese Jade, on handcrafted sterling silver links with a fancy sterling silver toggle clasp. It was very difficult to give this necklace up.

*I got the beautiful African Green Opal beads from Magpie Gemstones!

This piece is currently for sale at The Peace Tree Cafe in Moab, Utah. While I never make the exact same piece of jewelry twice, I would be happy to create a similar piece for you!
