Open silver halos frame lab-created opals in these forward-facing filigree earrings. Scrolls of silver filigree around each opal create an airy, sculptural design with a distinctly feminine character.
The opals are cut in an unusual orientation that deliberately reveals the columnar structure of the material. While opal cutters often orient lab-created opal to minimize this structure, here it becomes part of the design. Bands and patches of green, blue, gold, and orange shift across the surface, giving the opals a pattern quite different from a conventional cut.
The open filigree construction keeps the earrings visually intricate without feeling heavy, allowing the patterned opals and silver framework to share the focus.
