Blue opalite gemstone pendant 925 silver 21x28 mm

Opalite – also known as "common opal" – is a natural variety of opal without the typical play of color seen in precious opal. Its milky blue to whitish appearance with a gentle shimmer makes it a calm, elegant stone. Like all opals, it consists of amorphous silicon dioxide with embedded water. In this somewhat larger format, the depth and translucency of the stone are particularly well displayed. This pendant is set in 925 sterling silver.
