Yukon Gold Nugget and Boulder Opal Earring
$6,500
This one-of-a-kind jewel is composed of a pair of Australian boulder opals suspending a pair of Canadian Yukon gold nuggets. We hand matched these extraordinary elements to enhance the organic beauty of the natural materials.
The bezel-set boulder opals have an organic outline and vibrant blue and green tones that feel playful against the natural textured gold. Nuggets are formed from molten gold left after a volcanic eruption and years of tumbling in water. Accounting for less than two percent of gold and rarer than diamonds, gold nuggets are increasingly hard to find.
