About the Item

Pendant brooch with diamonds and black opal. A sparkling pendant-brooch, created in America during the post war and the mid century periods, back in the 1950. This piece has been crafted with retro-modernist patterns in solid platinum with high polished finish and is fitted at the reverse with a hinged pin bar to wear as a brooch and a concealed ring to wear in a chain or necklace. The pendant-brooch is embellished with a great assortment of eighty-five earth mined, natural gemstones such: white colorless diamonds and one Australian black opal. The opal, is gem quality, translucent with a perfect round cut and a great phenomenal play of multi colors. These kind of Opals have a reputation for being one of the most expensive opals in the world. Black Opal Australian black opals are the most valuable and widely known type of opal. Precious Opal like this are rare, opalescence refers to the optical phenomena displayed by the mineraloid gemstone opal (hydrated silicon dioxide). However, there are three notable types of opal (precious, common, and fire), each with different optical effects, so the intended meaning varies depending on context. The optical effects seen in various types of opal are a result of refraction (precious and fire) or reflection (common) due to the layering, spacing, and size of the myriad microscopic silicon dioxide spheres and included water (or air) in its physical structure. When the size and spacing of the silica spheres are relatively small, refracted blue-green colors are prevalent; when relatively larger, refracted yellow-orange-red colors are seen; and when larger yet, reflection yields a milky-hazy sheen.

Diamonds: Mounted in flush settings, with a mix of 70 European round and round brilliant cut diamonds, 2.84 carats, white colorless F color, VS-2 clarity.
