A striking statement pendant, with a stunning natural opal at its centre. It has a translucent blue base tone, with electric green, orange and purple flashes across the surface. Surrounding this are 4 floral motifs set with old cut diamonds.
 
We have created this piece from a Victorian era brooch, adding a new 9ct gold jump ring. There is one tiny fleabite to the edge of the opal at 1 o'clock. Otherwise the overall condition is excellent and maintains its original antique patina.
