Opal shows a play of color, soft flashes of blue, green and gold that shift as the light and the angle change. The pear shape draws the eye along the stone and keeps the pendant focused, so the color seems to unfold as you move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opal is about 9 by 6 millimeters and weighs about 0.87 carats. The setting holds the stone securely and lets its color show clearly, while the chain keeps the whole piece delicate and easy to wear with everyday clothes. The setting keeps the pendant balanced, so the opal sits upright and shows its color evenly from the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-editorial catalog-editorial--detail\"\u003e\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-open-heart-opal-necklace-03-bd1233a85e.jpg?v=1791562719\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"A close view shows the yellow gold bar, rounded connector, and three prongs surrounding a colorful pear-shaped opal.\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003eOpen Heart worn at the neck\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-kicker\"\u003eA brighter view\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA line that sits gently at the neck\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-lead\"\u003eA 16 inch chain with a 2 inch extender for a soft, open neckline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is 16 inches with a 2 inch extender, a classic length that sits at the collarbone.

The meaning is yours to choose, and the necklace makes no promise of a particular result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome people wear an opal necklace at the start of a new chapter or after a difficult season. Others choose one as a gift that feels bright, warm and full of possibility. Many people give an opal piece on a day that marks a new start, because its color feels like a bright promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your length\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is 16 inches with a 2 inch extender.
