This genuine Australian opal pendant has been set in an 18 karat gold pendant. Since the dawn of time, man has been fascinated by the graceful power of the horse. Herds of horses are depicted on the walls of caves far older than recorded history, while in the ancient near east the horse was associated with nobility. In the classical age, artists superbly captured the beauty of the animal in paintings and sculpture alike. This exquisite pendant, carved from a single piece of fiery opal, shows a lively horse with a windblown mane. It evokes the splendid horses that pull the chariot of the moon on the pediment of the Parthenon in Athens. With its iridescent, multi-colored beauty, opal seems the perfect gem for such a vision. A unique adornment for those who always keep a part of their heart free and untamed. The opal has been prized since antiquity. Within its depths, one sees the rich variety of colors for which other gems are famed: the purple of amethyst, the red of ruby, the sea green of emerald as well as gold and silver. The name of the gem is thought to derive from the word ophthalmius, pertaining to the eye, and the stone is valued for its ability to avert evil. In the east, opals are sought as amulets to prevent disease, and they are also believed to improve eyesight. Any person gazing upon this brilliant gem will be rewarded with beauty. - (FJ.3259)Origin: Australia Circa: 20 th Century AD Collection: Jewelry Style: Opal Pendants Medium: Opal and Gold « Less

Since the dawn of time, in both the old world and the new, the eagle has been revered as a sacred bird. Zeus, king of the classical gods, is usually shown accompanied by a fierce eagle, while eagles with widespread wings crowned the military standards of Rome. In Ancient America, this noble bird was often worshiped as a God in its own right, and even today it remains as the emblem of great nations and dynasties. This exquisite pendant, carved in opulent opal, depicts a conquering eagle descending from the skies. Symbolic of noble grace and power, this is a jewel to be worn by those of independent spirit. The opal has been prized since antiquity. Within its depths, one sees the rich variety of colors for which other gems are famed: the purple of amethyst, the red of ruby, the sea green of emerald as well as gold and silver. The name of the gem is thought to derive from the word ophthalmius, pertaining to the eye, and the stone is valued for its ability to avert evil.

Radiating a colorful fire from deep within, the opal has been prized since antiquity. Within its depths one sees the rich variety of colors for which other gems are famed: the purple of amethyst, the red of ruby, the sea green of emerald, as well as gold and silver. The matrix for these sparks ranges in hue from milky white to bright blue to black. Mines in Hungary have produced fine opals since the Middle Ages, but the best modern source for the gem is considered to be Australia. The name of the gem is said to derive from the word ophthalmius, pertaining to the eye, and the stone is valued for its ability to avert evil. In the East, opals are much sought after as amulets to protect the wearer from disease. The stone is also said to improve the eyesight. Any person gazing upon this brilliant gem will be rewarded with beauty. - (FJ.4196)Medium: Opal-Gold « Less
