This 71 carat natural wood fossil boulder opal pendant from Winton, Queensland displays sparkling cyan, blue, and green fire throughout the preserved wood fossil structure. The luminous color appears in scattered patches and concentrated sections, creating contrast between vibrant fire and rich brown wood fossil matrix. Winton boulder opals include rare wood fossil specimens where ancient timber has been replaced by precious opal over millions of years, preserving distinctive organic patterns while adding iridescent beauty.
Measuring approximately 47.5 × 23 × 7.5 millimeters, this boulder opal pendant arrives ready to wear on a brown adjustable cord necklace. The polished freeform shape follows natural contours of the fossilized wood while showcasing multiple areas of color play across the surface. The adjustable cord allows for customized length, making this necklace comfortable for any outfit or personal style preference. The substantial size creates visual impact perfect for casual everyday wear or bohemian statement jewelry. For those who prefer a permanent metal setting, the pendant can be professionally reset into sterling silver, yellow gold, rose gold, or bronze.
This is a 100% natural, untreated solid boulder opal, not a doublet or triplet. The opal and wood fossil formed together as silica rich water slowly replaced ancient timber, creating this authentic Queensland gemstone with earthy character. The wood fossil backing provides natural stability and durability, with the preserved organic matrix serving as foundation for the precious opal sections that display fire throughout the stone.
Boulder opal pendants like this piece represent quality Australian gemstones at accessible price points. As the official opal October birthstone, this pendant offers October born individuals a meaningful gift that celebrates their birth month with authentic natural beauty. The earthy appeal and vibrant scattered fire suit those seeking distinctive necklace jewelry with natural character. This boulder opal pendant necklace will arrive securely packaged in an Opal Galaxy luxury gift box, ready to wear immediately.

Caring for Your Australian Opal
Opal Jewelry
Important: Opals Are Fragile Gemstones
Opals are softer than sapphires, rubies, or diamonds and will crack or chip if struck hard against solid surfaces.
Always remove opal jewelry before:
Sports or physical activities
Manual labor, gardening, or gym workouts
Household tasks where impact is possible (lifting, moving furniture, etc.)
Even a minor knock during everyday wear can cause permanent damage. Treat opals as delicate gemstones, not everyday workwear.
Cleaning Your Opal
Clean with warm water and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, or chlorine. Light exposure to hand soap or dishwashing detergent is safe.
Storage
Store opal jewelry separately from harder gemstones (diamonds, sapphires) to prevent scratching.
Solid Natural Opals
(Black, Boulder, Crystal, White Opal)
Natural solid opals are stable and won't change color or crack from water, humidity, or temperature changes. They are safe to submerge in water and can be worn daily, provided they are protected from physical impact. Solid opals are a single piece of gemstone with no artificial backing, making them ideal for heirloom quality jewelry when handled with care.
Opal Doublets
Opal doublets consist of a thin slice of natural opal bonded to a dark backing. Do not submerge doublets in water as prolonged exposure can weaken the adhesive bond and cause separation or cloudiness. Remove doublet jewelry before swimming, bathing, or washing dishes. Clean with a damp cloth only; do not soak or use ultrasonic cleaners.
Like all opals, doublets are fragile and must be protected from impact.
Not sure which type you have? Solid opals show natural color throughout the stone. Doublets have a visible dark backing layer when viewed from the side.
