Suspended like a memory captured in time, this Australian Opal Necklace is a poetic ode to imperfection and the art of natural divergence, seamed in gold. A large, teardrop-shaped pipe opal — its base fractured with drifting sandstone and flickering spectral fire — evokes ancient continental forms, reminiscent of Pangaea, that once pressed together before gracefully parting. With its soft satin finish the gold bezel, shaped with intention and restraint, not only secures the stone, but exalts its visual fractures, framing them like a gilded whisper of history. A custom bail, sculpted to echo the opal’s silhouette, connects pendant to chain with fluid harmony, embracing a reverence for asymmetry and impermanence, and the sandblasted chain adds a soft appeal among visually jagged perimeters.

Turn the opal pendant over, and its reverse reveals a quiet play of color, like starlight buried beneath earth, alongside a secret engraving — an intimate mark left unseen, for its wearer only. This unique opal pendant, a fusion of luxury jewelry and natural art, is a celebration of rarity and reverence. At once ancient and modern, it's a fragment of the earth’s story reimagined for those who understand the beauty of what once was—and what still remains.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

• Caring For Your Jewelry:
Fine jewelry is delicate and should be treated with care. Avoiding any chemical exposures (ie: chlorine, lotion, etc…) and removing your jewelry during rigorous activity (ie: exercise or gardening) or at times of potential impact is advised. Please contact us at hello@nixinjewelry.com for assistance if your stone is loose or your setting is catching.

• Cleaning Your Jewelry:
Soft and or porous stones such as (solid) Opals, Turquoise, or even Pearls, can be cleaned with a soft toothbrush and warm soapy water. Diamonds are harder, but not impervious to damage — the care instructions above are safe to apply. Unless specifically recommended by us, we advise against the use of chemical cleaners on your NIXIN Jewelry. Avoid ultrasonic devices with soft and porous gemstones as well as pave. Have your jewelry professionally cleaned as needed.

• Opal Jewelry Cleaner:
We do offer a gentle cleaning agent on-site that is safe to use on most jewelry (including Opals), though we always recommend testing a small area prior to doing a full cleaning. We offer a bottle version of our foaming NIXIN Jewelry Cleaner to handle your jewelry cleaning at home and a Jewelry Cleaning Pen you can fit in your purse and take with you wherever you go.
