Buy Doublet Opal Earrings - 925 Silver Online at Wholesale Prices. Opal Auctions is a great place to buy Jewelry online as manufactures and sellers can delivery jewelry direct from the factory to you. Opal earrings are generally made in 925 silver.

Doublets are thin slice opal glued onto ironstone backing which is natural and this greatly enhances the colour and silver is easy to work with to bezel set over the doublet.

Most fire opal is form Coober Pedy and makes good doublets especially the shell s that are opalized and these are thin and make the brightest doublets earrings

Larger doublets may have patterns from flagstaff to straw pattern to block pattern and these are popular on swing bales as the pattern reflects so good when wearing.

Claw set is mainly used in smaller sizes and larger sizes have bezel set earrings

Calibrated designs can also be set in silver earrings with cz s that are manmade diamonds to create more of a formal design.

Other gemstones have been popular as combined setting including garnets, amethyst, sapphire and these blend well with opal doublets to make a unique individual design

The price of a doublet is roughly only 10% of that of a solid so they represent good value and opal is an ideal earring due to its spectrum of colours and also it is very difficult to find matching solid opals for reasonable price

Colours can vary considerably and sometimes one doublet may be fraction brighter than the other one as sometimes one opal is slightly more green or more blue than the other but we try and match a s closely a s possible but cannot always be exact colour
