Matrix Opal Necklace

Cylindrical glass beads, line of round, rare Australian matrix opal beads

Amidst a deep sea of aubergine, Claire Kahn's chord enraptures the heart with what emerges from her dark progression. A treasure discovered from the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, Kahn uncovered a beauteous collection of rare Australian opal beads. Observing their vast wonder at a closer glance, their opaque spheres reveal bright streams of blues, whites, grays, greens; a miraculous spectrum of color. With striking, yet organic, palpable intonation, each bead is like a globe sitting in the palm of your hand. When worn, their sumptuous vivacity shines against their quiet, yet dynamic backdrop. When adored, the eye glistens with illuminated wonder. To wear as a single strand, doubled, knotted or twisted, Kahn's extraordinary composition will never evanesce. As if possessing the power of little Earths or tiny planets. Near or afar, this piece will always feel like coming home.
