I created a necklace of a toroise shell precious opal mounted above the stone from my mother's engagement ring. I also have a Mexican
Opal that is fairly large and mounted inside a Black Hills Gold ear ring, which I use for a necklace. So I used to be a rock hound in my
former life. Our family used to get a scribbled map from a friend and go on a treasure hunt, usually finding that the road disappeared in
a pasture. It was an adventure and a lot of good memories of family fun. We also used to make jewelry.
I'll go with "other" since the only jewelry I wear is my Timex Ironman diver's watch.
My wedding band. Black Hills gold and diamonds.

Great minds, or should I say Deborah think alike, except mine is Debra LOL. My favorite is also my Black Hills Gold wedding bands, but mine is a very small diamond as I'm not much of a jewelry wearer unless I am dressing up to go somewhere and then it's just the same ole small hoop earrings and maybe another ring if my fingers aren't swelled. I have all kinds of jewelry, but never wear it.
Since I really never go much of anywhere except on Wednesdays to get groceries and pay some bills I am usually at home in shorts and an old T-shirt around the house. I'm a pretty simple kinda country gal.
It would be really large and heavy as an ear ring, and I always wear 2. Just showing my age. I like fillagree and open styles but especiallySounds good, Carolyn.
Have you always used it as a necklace and not an earring?
Kind of like an heirloom, sounds like.
Blessings.
It would be really large and heavy as an ear ring, and I always wear 2. Just showing my age. I like fillagree and open styles but especially
in ear rings. But the first neckless with the diamond is contemporary in curved, flowing open style of heavy gold. The second is lighter weight
but the stone is still large and heavy. They are very nice opals with all colors that really burst with flashes..
