Koroit Boulder Opal Necklace in Sterling Silver, One of a Kind Handcrafted Western Artisan Jewelry

A remarkable 34 carat Koroit Boulder Opal becomes the centerpiece of this one-of-a-kind handcrafted sterling silver necklace. Rich brown ironstone, golden ochre, creamy white and flashes of blue-green opal create a natural landscape that makes this stone truly individual.

Designed and handcrafted by Montana Metalsmith, the freeform Koroit Boulder Opal is framed in a rich sterling silver bezel and finished with a high polish. Above the stone, a handcrafted channel-style sterling silver bail adds a distinctive architectural element. Custom stamping and a dark patina bring depth and contrast to the design, giving the necklace a refined Western character with a modern edge.

The shape of the setting was created specifically around this individual stone rather than adapting the stone to a predetermined design. The result is a substantial collector-quality artisan necklace that celebrates both the natural character of Australian Koroit Boulder Opal and traditional metalsmithing.
