Yaraka Boulder Opal Drop Pendant with Diamond Box Bale on Gold Wire Collar
About the Item
This one-of-a-kind choker features a great new bale design by Eytan Brandes. Here, his box bale shares the stage with a knockout boulder opal from Broken River Mining in Australia.
The 18 karat gold bale is pavé-set on three sides with forty-four earth-mined natural and untreated white diamonds -- a total diamond weight of 0.49 carats. These are tiny but high-quality stones with plenty of sparkle; our supplier rates them G-H color and VS clarity.
The opal, mounted in an 18 karat gold bezel, comes from the Yaraka mine, located in the middle of nowheresville, Australia, but producer of some very distinctive opals -- those blond/creamy patches you see on our opal are Yaraka trademarks. The right side of the opal features a swath of brilliant green and blue that suggest to us the foreground of Van Gogh's Starry Night over the Rhone.
For the chain, we modified a simple but substantial 1.5mm neck wire of solid 14 karat gold. The closure is a hook-in-hook. The hole in the pendant's bale is very small so while the bale is not fixed on the chain (i.e., it can slide back and forth along the wire) it can not be removed from the wire.*
Weights and Measurements:
Opal: 26.4mm x 14.7mm x 4.8mm (15.67 carats)
Bale (not including bottom loop): 14.8mm x 4.7mm x 4.6mm
Diamonds: 1mm to 1.5mm (0.49 carats total)
Pendant length: 1.89"
Pendant width (at widest point): 0.65"
Pendant weight: 10.6 grams
Total 18 karat gold weight: 7.4 grams
Wire length: 14.5" (this is the inside circumference)
Wire thickness: 1.5mm
Wire weight: 9.8 grams (14 karat gold)
Total necklace weight: 19.8 grams
*If you would prefer a different kind of chain, just let us know and we'll give you options and pricing. Eytan can do the surgery required, but this pendant is meant to be mounted on one chain and stay there.

"Rose Drop" Pendant with Sapphires & Old Cut Diamonds on Chain in Mixed Gold
By Eytan Brandes
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
Eytan Brandes assembled this graceful, sexy little pendant from three different pieces:
The 18 karat yellow gold "rose" came off of a frankly hideous 1940s brooch. (The sum of its parts has proved greater than the whole; we're still using bits torn off this monster, and the pieces -- little petals and flowers and leaves and stems -- always look great when they're separated from the mother ship, but when combined in one brooch: a garish mess!)
The "stem" was actually a link from a very old (pre-1900), very fabulous but very fussy (and very prongy) diamond bracelet which Eytan resized for a customer, keeping a link as payment. The bottom diamond was badly damaged so rather than trying to match the top diamonds, Eytan replaced it with a nice sapphire.
The little 14 karat white gold tri-tipped top piece was the bale from a 1960s birthstone pendant, which Eytan scored and trimmed to match the stem.
Finally, Eytan added the perfect delivery system: a choker-length Boston link...
