Peruvian Opal Necklace With Vintage Paris Locket

by Holly Louen.
(Green Valley, Arizona)

I found this locket at the Paris flea market on a recent trip.

A relatively rare stone from the Andes Mountains in Peru, this natural Peruvian Opal gemstone ranges in color from blue/green to ivory/beige/brown, making a lovely shore-and-sea palette.

Vintage gold plated clasp with pink Tourmaline.

The stones are individually wire wrapped with 14K gold vermeil wire.

It fastens at the neck with a vintage gold plated clasp with pink Tourmaline.

The old Paris locket completes the look of this statement piece.

Opal stones are individually wire wrapped with 14K gold vermeil wire.
