SEDA OPAL JEWELERY
PRASE OPAL PENDANT
This is a natural prase opal from Tanzania which has a natural Australian crystal opal on top of the pendant.
The stones have been bezel set which helps protect it.
The workmanship and quality is excellent.
Sterling silver
Stamped 925
Our jewelery manafacturing is contracted out to one factory in asia where i supply both the silver and stones to be set.This gives me control of the quality of both the silver and stones.
PRASE OPAL is a nickel-bearing variety of common opal, with nickel being the chromophore that illuminates the neon bluish-green hue. Chrysoprase and prase opal can be similar in appearance but can easily by separated by varying RI and SG. Both varieties range from low-quality opaque material to high-quality translucent jewels; however, the prase opal tends to be more translucent and gemmy.
Chrysoprase and prase opal have been mined on Iyobo Mountain in central Tanzania for more than 20 years, with the first accounts being described by Gübelin in 1975. The most recent discovery revealed some of the most intense and beautiful bluish green material to be seen by the gem trade. The majority of the production is in the chrysoprase form, while the prase opal is the more rare find from this deposit. Chrysoprase and prase opal both form in discontinuous veins within metamorphosed ultramafic rocks with the most dominant host rock being altered serpentine.

The stone was more beautiful in person than in the photos. It arrived very quickly. I would definitely recommend this seller and would buy from him again.

Absolutely stunning multi-colored fire skitters across the surface as if the stone were alive. One of the most beautiful pieces of boulder opal I've ever purchased. Extremely pleased! Thanks!!!
Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
