Black Boulder Opal Pendant Description Style of pendant: The centre stone has been set with a plain bezel. They are all unique, and the imaginative designs bring out the beauty in these magnificent pieces. The style of these pendants was inspired by a mixture of shapes and patterns of the Australian outback, combined with Italian imagination and creativity. A work of art that will endure for a very long time.
Style of pendant:
The centre stone is in a bezel setting, allowing as much of the opal color to be shown. Dramatic red color creating an enduring fascination, every time you look at your Black Opal pendant, or it is seen on your neck. The dark color of this stone reflects and contrasts nicely with natural skin color, or with a lighter outfit and of course red is the most sought after and rare color in opals.
Black Boulder Opals can be found in most of the Australian Opal fields but the most internationally recognized are those from Western Queensland
Black Boulder Opal Pendant: Explanation of Black opal Stone.

Then, when opal was found in White Cliffs, and Coober Pedy, most of the stones were pale.
