Opal Pendant FAQs
What is an opal pendant?
An opal pendant is a piece of jewelry featuring a natural opal as the centerpiece, designed to hang from a necklace chain. Opal Galaxy offers pendants showcasing genuine Australian opals including black opals, boulder opals, and crystal opals. Each pendant is designed to display the opal’s natural color and pattern beautifully. Pendants range from simple settings highlighting the stone to elaborate designs with additional metalwork or accent stones.
What opal types work best in pendants?
All opal types work beautifully in pendants. Boulder opals are especially popular because their freeform shapes and ironstone backing create dramatic statement pieces. Black opals make stunning pendants with their dark backgrounds and vivid colors. Crystal opals offer elegant, luminous pendant options. White opals provide subtle beauty. The best type depends on personal style and the look you want to achieve.
How do I choose a pendant chain?
Choose a pendant chain that complements the pendant’s weight, style, and metal. Heavier pendants need substantial chains for balance and security. Match metals when possible: silver pendants with silver chains, gold with gold. Chain length affects where the pendant sits: 16 to 18 inches suits most people, placing pendants at the collarbone. Consider chain style, from delicate cables to bold links, based on the pendant’s design.
Can pendants be worn every day?
Opal pendants are excellent for daily wear because they hang safely on the chest, protected from the impacts rings and bracelets face. The position keeps pendants away from most hazards during normal activities. Many people wear opal pendants daily for years without problems. Simply remove pendants during activities involving potential impacts or harsh chemicals, and clean them periodically to maintain their beauty.
What pendant setting styles are available?
Opal pendant settings include bezel settings that surround the opal with metal for protection and modern looks, prong settings that hold the opal with minimal metal for maximum light exposure, bail settings where the opal has a loop for the chain, and custom designs incorporating metalwork or additional stones. Boulder opal pendants often feature freeform settings following the stone’s natural shape. Setting choice affects both aesthetics and stone security.
How do I care for my opal pendant?
Care for opal pendants by removing them before bathing, swimming, or activities involving impacts. Clean gently with warm water and mild soap using a soft cloth. Check the bail and chain connections periodically to ensure everything remains secure. Store pendants in soft pouches separate from other jewelry to prevent scratching. Have a jeweler inspect settings annually. Pendants are relatively easy to care for and maintain with minimal effort.
