These handmade Australian Boulder Opal and Rhodolite Garnet earrings bring vivid natural colour with a clean, timeless finish. Featuring 6 carats of solid boulder opal, each stone shows flashes of blue and green across its natural ironstone base. The opals are paired with 2 carats of deep purple-red rhodolite garnets, adding warmth and contrast that makes the opal colour pop.
Each gemstone is carefully selected and hand-set in polished 925 sterling silver. The result is a balanced pair that feels substantial yet comfortable, easy to wear from everyday outfits to special occasions.
Ethically sourced from our family-owned Big Red Mine in Western Queensland, this pair is a true expression of Australian gemstone heritage.
