It's magical when two gemstones grow side by side and within each other. In these beautiful oval drops, we see opal growing in chalcedony, a cryptocrystalline variety of quartz.
A cryptocrystalline gemstone is made up of minute crystals that are so small they can only be seen with a microscope. This feature gives chalcedony remarkable strength and a beautiful polished glow that pairs beautifully with opal's ethereal beauty.
Each gemstone displays a unique color zoning that shows the place where opal and chalcedony meet. They have been custom shaped into matching oval forms.
