Welcome to our Shop On this page you will witness the entire process of creating a custom pendant from conception to completion. Choosing the stones Part One The Customer is looking for a Yowah opal pendant and Hand Fabricated chain... She chooses a Yowah opal because of it's rarity and uniqueness, and the play of bright vibrant colors. She has looked at- number of available opals on our Opal site but unfortunately she is unable to connect with the correct stone... Realizing the problem, I call a friend and opal dealer in Australia who has a private collection of investment stones. She is willing to part with a sample of 7 Yowah opals. Opal #1 18.22ct  Opal # 2 28.38ct  Opal #3 16.49ct  Opal #4 9.31ct  Opal #5 18.61ct  Opal #6 20.72ct  Opal #7 20.91ct  The Customer finds had a tough time choosing between two of the stones so chooses to purchase both of her favorites Opal # 1 and #2. Carol and I weren't surprised as these two particular stones were the choice pick (and the most expensive) Once we have established the center stone                              The end result looks something like this   |
