14K Yellow Gold 1.54CTW Ethiopian Opal & Blue Sapphire Halo Pendant Necklace by Bellarri

This Bellarri pendant from the Forever Young Collection is crafted in 14 karat yellow gold and features a 1.15 carat faceted Ethiopian opal at the center. The opal is framed by a halo of round blue sapphires totaling approximately 0.39 carats, creating a vibrant contrast in both color and texture. The pendant is suspended from an 18 inch yellow gold chain with a lobster clasp, completing the design with a balanced, finished look.

Luminous, vibrant, and full of movement, this opal and sapphire pendant feels alive with color from every angle. The shifting tones within the opal bring in flashes of green, gold, and soft fire, while the surrounding blue sapphires add a crisp, defined edge that keeps the look feeling grounded. It pairs beautifully with warm tones, flowing fabrics, or even a simple neckline where it can take focus without competing. It’s a piece that feels expressive and distinctive, with a natural energy that makes it easy to come back to again and again.

What Makes Ethiopian Opal Unique?

Ethiopian opals are known for their vivid play-of-color, displaying flashes of multiple hues that shift depending on the light and viewing angle. Unlike some other opals, many Ethiopian varieties are hydrophane, meaning they can absorb small amounts of moisture, which may temporarily affect their appearance. Because of this, they are often worn with a bit of care, avoiding prolonged exposure to water. Their dynamic color and organic character make them especially sought after for designs that highlight movement and individuality.
