A collaboration between Nature Matrix and the ever lovely Authentic Adorning, this captivating Australian Boulder Opal necklace is a blend of natural splendour and artisanal craftsmanship.
Ethically fossicked in Winton, Queensland, our boulder opal is hand cut and polished by us, in the bus. Authentic Adorning expertly wraps our pieces in copper wire, enhancing the opal's natural beauty with a touch of rustic charm. Deliberate oxidation of the copper brings forth a rich patina, infusing the piece with depth, character, and a timeless elegance.
Formed over many millions of years, Australian boulder opal is the result of silica-rich water evaporating from cracks within ironstone boulders. This stunning piece exhibits bright colourful flashes; vibrant hues of opal green, blue and purple set against earthy brown ironstone.
This necklace is strung on hand waxed hemp cord, another beautiful example of the love and intention that Authentic Adorning puts into her jewellery.
