Black Welo Opal & Moonstone ‘Dragon Fire’ drop earrings feature super colorful black Welo Opals from Ethiopia and bright Rainbow Moonstone nuggets on 14k Gold Filled ear wires.  Part of the Moonlight Collection of jewelry.

The opals have tremendous play of color - spitting fire in red, emerald green, bright blue, yellow — on a dark black/green base. The gemstone facets both reflect and help refract the colors from with as the stones turn in the light. Paired with lovely blue-flash Moonstone nuggets, these ‘Dragon Fire’ earrings are elegant yet very modern in their styling. 

They’re perfect for the woman who loves fashion a little off-beat, who likes to show her individual spirit, fire and flair, and not follow the crowd.  Are you that woman?

︎ NOTES:

♡︎ Ethiopian Welo Opals absorb water so please don’t wear your Opal jewelry in the shower, swimming etc. If they do get wet, dry them out in a warm, sunny spot and keep them away from moisture sources.

♡︎ Gold-filled is a US term for jewelry composed of a solid layer of gold (typically constituting at least 5% of the item's total weight) mechanically bonded to a base of either sterling silver or some base metal.

The layer of gold on gold-filled items is 5 to 10 times thicker than that produced by regular gold plating, and 15 to 25 times thicker than that produced by gold electroplate.

All metal used in my jewelry, unless otherwise stated,  is 14k Gold Filled, including chains, wire, clasps etc.
