Indonesian Blue Opalized Wood & Sterling Silver Pendant

Indonesian Blue Opalized Wood & Sterling Silver Pendant.

Extremely rare and lovely, Indonesian Blue Opalized Wood is a cherished material used by lapidary artists for creating stunning pieces of jewelry.  This material was first found as pebbles and rounded stones in streams and near the slopes of three volcanoes in the West Java Province.  The source deposit, an ancient petrified forest covered with pyroclastic flow from a volcanic eruption, was located in 2017 on the steep slopes of Mt. Tjakalak.  Over thousands of years, the woods’ organic material was replaced with opaline silica rich in copper, iron and manganese minerals.  These rich minerals are responsible for the amazing colors in the stone.

The pendant bail is authentic 925 sterling silver.

Feel treasured when you wear this stunning pendant!
