The Story & Styling

Just love these opals! Their dark body holds a play of color (the flashes of blue, green, red, and gold that move across the surface as light shifts). Black opal with this kind of internal fire is what serious collectors chase.

The 14K gold handcuff clasp is the design feature that makes this piece truly wearable. Wear it in front and hang your favorite pendant from it. Wear it to the side as an accent. Or tuck it to the back and let the opal beads do the talking solo.

Ulka's Expert Insight: What makes black opal stand apart is the contrast. The dark body amplifies every flash of color, so the fire reads brighter and more saturated than it would on a white or crystal opal base. It is one of the few gemstones I tell clients to buy when they see it because the supply of this quality is genuinely shrinking.
