Hello! I specialise in delicate and dainty jewellery made from silver and top quality gemstones that I source direct from a family of artisan gemstone cutters in Jaipur, India, before bringing them back to make into jewellery in my studio overlooking Mounts Bay in beautiful Cornwall.

*ALL OF MY JEWELLERY COMES BOXED* so it's ready to give as a present to someone special - and that includes yourself!

*Not everything I make is listed here* If you've seen something at a craft fair and can't find it here, please get in touch with me directly.

Or if you'd like something a bit different, feel free to ask. I have over 2500 different gemstones so there's a lot to play with!

I run my business as environmentally friendly and ethically as I can. I use eco silver, recycled and recyclable packaging and re-use any plastics that come my way and, by going directly to the gemstone cutters, I know who is doing the work and their working conditions.

Full description

Featuring a striking black and white Dendritic Opal briolette pendant, wrapped in black Oxidised Sterling Silver wire and hanging from an Oxidised Sterling Silver chain, this necklace is a one of a kind piece. Each stone is unique, with delicate black patterns on a white or translucent ground - the black is manganese which has seeped into the opal while it was being formed.

!!! The stone in the photograph has now sold but I have plenty of other similar dendritic opals - I will happily send you photographs so you can choose your own stone !!!

Your choice of chain length from 16", 18" or 20".

This is also available in Sterling Silver, Gold Fill or Rose Gold Fill.

The word "dendritic" is from Greek and means "branched like a tree. One of my customers said that she thought the patterns looked like Japanese art, and I think that sums up the combination of delicacy and complexity.

Please note that the stones can vary considerably in the amount of blackness on the white: please ask if you'd like to choose your stone and I can send photographs of the stones I have available.

Oxidised Sterling Silver is Sterling Silver that has been deliberately blackened to create a dramatic black wire.

Earrings are also available - if bought as a set I will try to match to the pendant as best I can, although as these are natural stones an exact match is impossible.

Designed by Sarah de Larrinaga in Cornwall
