🟣THE OPAL:
💎 UNIQUE AND RARE NATURAL FIRE OPAL WITH NEON SURREAL GLOWING PLAY OF COLOR!
▪️GEMSTONE ORIGIN: 100% natural, earth-mined, solid, untreated free of any artificial enhancement, toxic chemicals or other human intervention*
*Perfectly preserved in its natural state and cut by human hands in a sustainable process of gemstone’s production that is transparent from the moment it is extracted to the point of it being shipped to me, so I can create a piece of jewelry with it. My suppliers are reliable local small family owned businesses that are not involved in any unethical, exploitative and destructive practices that are often associated with large scale gemstone mining operations;
▪️QUALITY GRADE: AAAA - rare
*AAA (standard quality grade for opals I sell via this store)- high quality opal with fire/play of color visible under natural light and under artificial light; AAA+/AAAA - exceptionally beautiful bright opal with rarely occurring features (such as red colored fire) and coloring;
▪️ DIMENSIONS: 15x11mm
▪️ WEIGHT: approximately 6.75 ct
▪️SHAPE AND CUT: oval cabochon
▪️BRIGHTNESS: 5/5
▪️PATTERN: honeycomb pattern
*Smaller opals do not have identifiable fire pattern which emerges only in larger stones, and this opal offers such an incredible amount of fiery colors that are easily visible under any lighting conditions
▪️PREDOMINANT COLORS: light orange, green, yellow
* The opal pictured is the ACTUAL STONE THAT YOU ARE GOING TO RECEIVE;
▪️BASE TONE: white or bluish semi translucent, not clear or see through
* More opaque base tone which is slightly darker is considered more valuable in a natural opal.
▪️PLAY OF COLOR: purple, orange, white, yellow - this is the combination of colors I see in the most unique opals with the highest intensity of their fire colors
The orange and green glow look so surreal that they seem to be not out of this world under certain light angles.
No photos can properly convey this opal’s whimsical and transcendental beauty that you can appreciate seeing it in real life!
🌟You will not go unnoticed wearing this necklace: - nature has already created a perfect fashion statement for you to express your esthetics and your unique style! I simply made this wearable so you can have a piece of natural beauty always with you!

🟣THE SETTING:
▪️ METAL FINISH: 14k rose, yellow or white gold filled over solid 925 sterling silver - select your preferred color in the menu option.
▪️SOLID GOLD: 14k solid rose, yellow or white gold pendant necklace made with excellent quality of craftsmanship with a lovely filigree bail and a matching thick 1.5mm diamond cut twisted rope chain in the corresponding gold color in 16” or 18” length according to your preference from the menu options.
▪️CHAIN: matching chain is provided with the pendant in the same metal finish and color.
For all solid 14k gold necklaces the chain is quite thick to match the look of the pendant that is a larger size gemstone, so together the pendant necklace is going to look like a one cohesive piece that is created with care and attention to the style.

Frequently Asked Questions
Materials
The main materials used in my jewelry are Ethiopian Welo opals of high quality grade (usually AAA), which are selected for each stone’s unique brilliance and coloring that correspond to the higher market value and offer an objectively better choice for a buyer compared to many other opal jewelry designers that opt for average quality opals to maintain the lower price advantage. I also use high quality moissanite which is a sustainable alternative to natural diamond and is the future of engagement and wedding jewelry. I am happy to help people discover its potential to satisfy their most intricate of desires when looking for the perfect engagement ring and leave diamonds to be the relic of the old times when cruelty was a social norm.
Quality Assurance and Verification
My shop has been consistently offering high quality handcrafted jewelry that are made with excellent craftsmanship, unique original designs and with ethically and sustainably sourced gemstones.
I VERIFY AUTHENTICITY of all the materials that I use for making my jewelry including testing precious metals to confirm the purity of 14k gold or solid 925 sterling silver. I select the best gemstones for Kissed By Fire jewelry collection always trying to find more unique and rare gems that have striking beauty and are genuine and natural gemstones that have not been enhanced, dyed or otherwise altered from their original state.
All verification, testing and quality grading is done by me using my knowledge of jewelry industry and gemology.
Processing and Shipping
Average processing time is 1-2 weeks. Some exceptions include solid gold items needing to be reordered which adds a week, some unexpected delays with shipping etc.,
Each item is made only to order - there are no premanufactured pieces, which I can drop in a mailbox the same day -I put as much time, effort and care into creating each made to order piece of jewelry as is necessary to bring it to the achievable perfection, which you deserve.
I accept URGENT ORDERS for certain items that can be made very quickly, but you have to get a confirmation from me to make sure that I am able to fulfill your order by the required deadline.
Default shipping method is USPS Priority Mail with an option to upgrade to express.
Natural opal Photo Disclaimer
Any natural opal is constantly changing its play of color and its entire appearance in response to the changes in its environment particularly shifts in the light angle, its intensity and brightness as well as the light source (natural light causes significant attenuation in opal’s color, while artificial light brings out the most of the hidden beauty within an opal). This is a natural property of this gemstone, and it is expected that the same opal will look completely different from the listing images if the surrounding light is different from the exact moment when the original photos were taken. Opal is a true chameleon and its we love it for this particular quality, but it can be misleading to a new opal owner. Please keep this in mind.
General Return Policy
YOU WILL ALWAYS RECEIVE HELP IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR ORDER!
All jewelry items that have a defect, is damaged or is significantly different from the listing description are eligible for a refund/exchange/repair. Please CONTACT ME WITHIN 3 DAYS AFTER DELIVERY to request help with your order, SHIP THE ITEM BACK WITHIN 7 DAYS using a free return label after your return is confirmed.
Make sure that the ID TAG IS ATTACHED to the jewelry and the item is in its ORIGINAL, UNWORN, UNALTERED, UNWASHED condition in order to receive a guaranteed refund. However, there are instances when returns are not accepted due to the subjective nature of the issue that the buyer has with the product they purchased. Please see post below ⬇️
Care Instructions
Natural opal requires extreme caution when using liquids, because it can absorb any liquid substance and it might cause permanent damage to the gemstone.
Keep your opal jewelry in a clean dark space, preferably in an air tight container when you are not wearing it.
Do not wear it to do manual work, play sports, swim, wash hands, exercise vigorously or when sweating. Take it off before showering, sleeping or doing anything strenuous.
Keep your opal jewelry away from sudden changes in temperature or from severe cold or hot weather.
Do not wash, submerge in liquid, clean using liquid jewelry or ultrasonic cleaners.
Most importantly: protect your opals from moisture at any cost, because this is the #1 contributing factor to opal jewelry damag
Ethiopian Opal Coloring
All opals I sell are exclusively Ethiopian Welo opals that are earth-mined, natural, solid and are free of invasive treatments that could significantly alter their appearance or reduce market value. I NEVER use doublets/triplets opals, artificially enhanced, lab created, or man made opals.
However, it is well known that Ethiopian opal does not occur in black variety, so it has to be understood at all times that heat application is needed to change the base tone to the dark black color while leaving the other properties and color appearance of an opal intact and not affected by heat. A heat treated gemstone is still considered NATURAL, and almost all colored gems are heat treated without any effect on their value or popularity.
My shop is a single person run business
Please keep in mind that I run the store on my own and have no other person to replace me with tasks that I am not able to handle at any point when I am working on other aspects of the business.
