{"product_id":"vintage-9ct-yellow-gold-fine-opal-doublet-solitaire-heart-pendant-necklace","title":"Vintage 9ct Yellow Gold Fine Opal Doublet Solitaire Heart Pendant Necklace","description":"\u003cp\u003eA beautiful vintage 9ct yellow gold opal pendant, set with an oval cabochon opal within a wonderfully dainty heart shaped mount. The opal is bezel set at the centre, with the gold sweeping gently around it to create the outline of a heart. A simple tapered bail finishes the design, keeping the whole pendant delicate and allowing the colourful stone to remain the focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opal is presumed to be a doublet and has a wonderful play of colour, with flashes of vivid green and blue alongside little touches of violet, turquoise and golden yellow as it moves through the light. Opal has been treasured for centuries for this extraordinary shifting colour, with every stone having its own completely individual appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColourful, fine, and very easy to wear, this is such a pretty little pendant. The subtle heart shape gives it a lovely sentimental feel without being overly obvious, while the opal provides plenty of colour despite its delicate size. A lovely vintage piece, ready to be worn and enjoyed all over again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotographed on light, dark and skin tone backgrounds, to allow you to see how the colour shifts and changes in different situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICS:\u003cbr\u003eHallmarks: Unmarked, tested as verified as solid 9ct gold (with a small acid discoloration mark on the back from testing, this can be polished off on request)\u003cbr\u003eAge: Circa 1980\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1.2 grams (pendant alone)\u003cbr\u003eGemstone: Oval opal doublet cabochon measuring 10 x 8 mms\u003cbr\u003ePendant Size: 2 cms tall including the bail loops\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may choose to purchase the pendant with or without the dainty 9ct yellow gold trace chain shown in the photos.
