Opals have traditionally symbolized hope, purity and truth and they are the stone given to celebrate the 14th wedding anniversary. In ancient times the opal was a stone of fidelity and assurance, and was often worn as an amulet, to bring about loyalty and faithfulness. This Teardrop Shaped Opal piece has a Gold Coloured Tree Of Life design on it and measures 3.5cm x 2.5cm approx. It is suspended from an 18 Inch 14 Karat Gold chain. Those born in October enjoy two spectacular birthstones to commemorate their birthdays – opal and tourmaline. Both October birthstones have endless colour combinations and beautiful colouring characteristics.
