14kt Yellow Gold Opal Earrings

These 14-karat yellow gold earrings are set with natural opal.

Opal is hydrated silica that can break white light into a play of living color, a fire no two stones repeat; it holds up to a fifth of its weight in water, which is why it glows in a way nothing crystalline does. The center stone is an untreated opal from Ethiopia, its color natural and disclosed as it is on every listing.

Warm metal and real color, made in small numbers for the occasions worth a piece you keep. Caveman Gems builds each piece in small numbers and photographs it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
