Good to Know

Frequently Asked Questions

The piece is made of brass with a silver plated finish in a silver tone. The center stone is a synthetic opal, cut in a pear shape and measuring 7mm x 5mm.

How long is the necklace?

It measures 16 inch in length with a 2 inch extender attached at the clasp. This allows it to be worn as a choker or let out slightly for a bit more drop.

How does the necklace fasten?

How do I take care of the opal and the plating?

Wipe the piece with a soft cloth after wearing it, and keep it away from chlorine, perfume, and harsh detergents since opal holds a little water in its structure and is sensitive to heat and chemicals. Store it somewhere dry when not in use.
