#1 RAW OPAL GOLD "Y" Necklace (OCTOBER BIRTHSTONE) OOAK #1

Our October birthstone is OPAL, and once again we have some lovely, One Of A Kind gemstones to use in our earrings and necklaces! 

"Opal" comes from the Sanskrit word upala, which means "precious stone." This comes from the stories from ancient India, which said the Mother Goddess changed the virgin Goddess of the Rainbow into a stone to save her from the amorous attentions of three gods. The word was adopted in Latin during Roman times as opalus. It is said that precious opal, with its display of fire, can spark creativity, and that the "dance" of its fire can help people enjoy their lives. The gemstone has been associated with the sacral chakra, imbalances of which can cause problems with addictions. 

14K Gold Fill necklace is set at 16" with a 1" drop for the raw Opal.
Opal measures 1/2" tall x 1/4" wide ~3/16" wide at the bottom. Another One of a Kind piece!
