Vintage Opal Bangle Bracelet

[Catmom]

I just can't seem to get enough of opals lately. I stumbled across this vintage beauty in one of my favorite jewelry stores on Sanibel Island and for some reason it just followed me home, lol. The detailing is amazing and the opals just glow! I hope you love it as much as I do!

 

[Catmom]

A few more and a family shot...

Yum!!! It's gorgeous and your opal collection grows! I love the details on the bangle.

Gorgeous new acquisition there Catmom. Those opals glow with an iridescence that is so eye catching! I love the prong detail! Looks beautiful on you.

Beautiful! Did you find it at the islander trading post? I've dug up a few hidden gems there

Isn't it extraordinary how they just do that? Follow you home, I mean.

I wonder if you love them because they remind you of tropical waters? It seems to me that - as we grow older - we're not so addicted to the pure light of diamonds, but are more drawn to the beautiful colors that gems can produce. I love my new ACA, but....

Opals. Yum.

Love it, @Catmom! Wear in good health.

Thanks bright ice! It does grow, lol. I don't know what it is about them. I love the details too.

No at the Cedar Chest. They have a large estate/vintage section. You never know what they will have.

Thanks mrs_b! Just call me the jewel whisperer, lol. I love diamonds don't get me wrong but there's just something about color for me and the more you can pack in one stone............bonus! Opals are the best.
