Branching Florals Necklace, Boulder Opal, Pink Tourmaline and Golden Rutilated Quartz

This piece grew out of the combination of the rectangular Australian boulder opal and the carved pink tourmaline leaf. From there I added more tourmalines and a round rutilated quartz with gorgeous golden needles. The silver has been given a lighter, brushed oxidized finish as I wanted a softer gray to complement the pinks, peaches and golds. The chain adjusts from 16 1/2 to 18 1/2 inches with a hook clasp and extender chain. 22k gold bezels, 18k tube bezels, 14k prongs and wire wrapping and oxidized argentium sterling silver.
