~Sterling Silver, 18K Gold, Koroit Boulder Opal, Size 8 1/4~
 
Unlike other opals that are cut away from their host rock, boulder opals form naturally within ironstone. The opal remains bonded to this earthy matrix, creating dramatic contrasts between glowing color and rugged stone. Each piece is truly one of a kind—no two patterns, seams, or color plays are ever the same.  Forged over millions of years, boulder opals are a relic of the deep—raw iron and living light bound together by time itself.
