Mineral Necklace Crushed Opal- Silver

HARVESTED FROM THE EARTH, THE SAMANTHA WILLS MINERALS COLLECTION IS THE MEETING OF BOHEMIAN AND LUXURY. RAW STONES CUT, POLISHED IN A SETTING WITH A BASE OF STERLING SILVER & PLATED IN RHODIUM. SELECT YOUR DESIRED ENERGY AND WEAR IT CLOSE TO YOUR HEART. THIS LIMITED EDITION PIECE IS HAND MADE WITH SYNTHETIC OPALS, SET IN RESIN. WHILE SYNTHETIC OPALS ARE MADE IN A LAB, THEY ARE CHEMICALLY VERY SIMILAR TO NATURAL OPALS, WITH SYNTHETIC OPALS MADE UP OF APPROXIMATELY 20% RESIN & 80% NATURAL OPAL. THE BENEFIT OF PRODUCING IN A LAB (LIKE A LOT OF SEMI PRECIOUS STONES ARE), IS THAT THE OPAL FORMS IN A SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME, ALLOWING THEM TO LOOK ALMOST IDENTICAL TO NATURAL OPALS. THE CRYSTALS USED THROUGHOUT THE SAMANTHA WILLS MINERALS RANGE HAVE BEEN CUT INDIVIDUALLY, AND EACH HAS THEIR OWN UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS AND COLOURING. PLEASE TREAT THESE PIECES WITH CARE, AS THEY ARE FINE JEWELLERY.
