I have been looking for an opal for my DIL. She is pregnant with her 2nd child( my 2nd grandchild). For her first pregnancy I bought her a double strand of pearls. For this pregnancy I thought an opal pendant would be nice. She likes classic styles, but doesn't wear a lot of jewelry.
I found a doublet opal - the site describes it "mounted onto a ironstone backing. The natural crystal is blackened on the back so it looks like expensive black opal". Its very pretty but is there any reason not to buy a " crystal blackened on the back?"
I would love to buy her a nice black opal but it is more than I want to spend. I plan to have it set it simply in white gold.
Any feed back or things I need to know/learn would be appreciated. Thank you.
