14kt GoldFill/Opal Moon Cylinder Pendant/Link Chain

Inspired by the sea and winter dreams of sunnier days the Ocean waves collection features shades of blue and turquoise gemstones and shiny gold. Like sea glitter bouncing off the waves the collection seeks to sparkle and shine and draws on sculptural forms stacked high in statement styles of earrings, pendants and bracelets. This piece features a delicate yet surprisingly sturdy link chain with two cone beads intercepted by a stunning Opal gemstone. The focal piece measures approximately 40mm * 10mm. The chain measures approximately 18" in length with a further two inches extension chain to adjust to a longer length. If you would like a different length please get in touch and we can do that for you. Made from lux, high-quality materials including 14kt Goldfill metal sourced from suppliers who have certified all gold used is conflict free and lab grown Opals (a more sustainable alternative to the traditional mined variety) these earrings are gorgeous quality! SKU: NK2403b Why use GoldFill? Goldfill is such a wonderful material. It gives the look of 14kt Gold at a fraction of the price. Also known as "rolled Gold" it is a layer of precious gold metal pressure bonded to another metal usually another yellow metal like brass. Not to be confused with its cheaper cousin gold plating, GoldFill contains far more of the precious metal, is tarnish resistant and EU regulated. It is currently more valuable than Sterling Silver and even Vermeil (sterling silver with Gold plating). It is a wonderful material, try it, we think you'll be impressed! The goldfill in these earrings has come from a supplier whose supply chain has been vetted. The gold used is certified conflict free and responsibly sourced. Why use Lab grown Opals? Lab grown Opals are a more sustainable alternative to the traditional mined variety. As such they offer a lower carbon footprint and as you can trace the origin of the stones you can rest easy in the knowledge that they are also conflict free. They are nonetheless excellent quality and the same chemical consistency as natural opals.
