A big hello to all at cw!
I thought it was about time I stopped by and contributed! This is an antique 9 carat gold opal doublet from the Arts & Craft era and a good size at 16 mm×10 mm.
It has intense spectral colours of red, blue and green with flashes of orange.
Rim set in an oval frame & a decorative kite shaped outer frame.
The antique 9ct buttery gold chain compliments the opal nicely.
Hope you like it!

Hi kyra! Its a beauty !
Hi Celine, an opal doublet or triplet are slices of opal glued to a black backing (usually ironside or potch) designed to imitate a solid black opal.
Thank you aura for the love:)

Just gorgeous Betty. I'm drooling on the keyboard here.
Thanks Karen! I really like the kite shaped setting and the size, not to big or to small.
