Cyclone Nargis has devastated Myanmar. Tens of thousands are reported dead, and many more are without homes, food and clean water. 50% of the proceeds from this auction will be donated to help feed those affected by this and other disasters.
Up for grabs is a beautiful sterling silver pendant set with a fiery 12x10mm Australian black opal triplet. This gorgeous gem is filled with awesome fire - primarily green with some blue and hints of red and gold. The pendant is brand new and has never been worn.
*About opal triplets: opal triplets are a wonderful way to enjoy the beauty of a black opal without the price tag. An opal triplet consists of a thin slice of natural (unless otherwise stated) Australian crystal opal, placed between a dark backing, and a crystal or spinel cap. These layers both protect the fragile gem and cause the colors to "pop" - enhancing the fire. Solid opals are extremely fragile and have a tendency to crack or craze. Opal triplets are a way around those tendencies.
