Opal earrings
I didn’t realise my opal earrings had so much green until I took this close-up. But my, what fiery blues do lurk in the depths!
There’s no danger of not seeing the blues in Lapis lazuli. An aunt gave me the pendant years ago, and I bought earrings to go with it.

this are all stunning . . . . and it is fascinating isn’t it how things dramatically change colour depending on the angle, the closeness and the light!

Definitely fascinating! It’s also kind of funny how clunky the earrings look so zoomed. The wires are actually quite delicate.

The Lapis lazuli pendant is truly lovely, I like the setting as well as the colour. The OH bought me an opal engagement ring in a Victorian setting. I don’t really wear jewellery nowadays and my pierced ears have healed over.

I was struck by the pendant’s setting too. And astounded that this aunt, who never bought me anything, would buy me something so unusual and so nice.
