If you are looking for that elusive present for someone special, opals make a unique gift. In the current climate of mass production and global markets there is something extremely reassuring about opals because they are all completely individual.
Of course, opal jewelry comes in many forms. There are opal pendants, rings, earrings and bracelets so the choice is simply down to personal taste. Earrings are particularly versatile as they can be worn with a wide range of dresses and styles.
Opal pendants can look very classy, especially when they are mounted with diamonds or other gemstones. Opal pendants work best with monochrome outfits such as a black evening outfit and make a conversation piece. For everyday wear, opal pendant designs with a simple claw or bezel set can look extremely elegant.
Opal rings tend to be more of a personal chose rather than a gift. Since a silver opal ring can be difficult to adjust it is always advisable to make sure you have the correct ring size.
Perhaps the most popular type of opal jewelry in term of gifting is opal earrings. Bear in mind though, that opal earrings are a great gift, but only for someone with pierced ears. For those without pierced ears, opal bracelets are better choice. Mounted on silver or gold settings they can be made with multiple opals.
Of all the opal jewelry available, earrings are probably the most versatile as they can be used with a variety of outfits and occasions. They can be used to boost a dull work outfit or to enhance a party outfit. Since they are effectively a bespoke item they make an extremely attractive gift. Their uniqueness means that even in a pair of earrings the colors can be quite different as it is getting harder to obtain matching opals.
Due to the wide range of colors available and each stone's unique design opal jewelry captures the imagination. Appealing to anyone with a sense of fashion and style, its appeal is ageless. It is the perfect way to show someone how much you appreciate them, and an even better way to treat yourself!
