Peruvian Opal Pendant in Sterling Silver with 16" beaded snake chain with spring ring clasp
Indulge in the unique beauty of our Peruvian Opal Pendant. Peruvian opal is so beautiful that it makes sense for it to be the National Stone of Peru! This stunning piece features a deep teal blue opal, unlike the typical white opals you may be used to. Peruvian opal is only found in the Andes Mountains and is considered as a gift from Pachamama, the earliest Inca Goddess of fruitfulness and Mother Earth.
You will not see the typical play of color that you’re used to seeing in opals with Peruvian opal because the internal crystalline composition is more random. This is a sedimentary mineral formed at low temperature from igneous (volcanic) rock with high silica content and is made of mostly oxygen, silicon, and hydrogen. Not only is Peruvian Opal beautiful but it can help release tension and assist with the flow of ideas, reduce stress, and approach the future with tranquility.
