Boulder Seam Opal Necklace – Earth‑Layer Triangle Matrix (Leather Cord)
Couldn't load pickup availability
Earthcrest - A boulder seam opal that looks like layered earth glowing from within, its flashes rising gently across the triangular surface like colour emerging through ancient stone.
This double‑sided boulder seam opal necklace features a striking matrix pattern that resembles layered earth, with broad flashes of green, blue and purple across its polished triangular surface.
The upside‑down rounded triangle shape gives it a unique, organic feel, while the natural matrix textures add depth and character.
With brightness 3, the colour play is gentle but clearly visible, making it an easy everyday piece with artisan charm.
The 30 × 20 × 3 mm solid opal is finished on an adjustable leather cord and sourced directly from the miner - a grounded, nature‑inspired necklace perfect for gifting or casual wear.

We only work with Australian opals, direct from #MinerToMaker.
Every stone is natural, untreated, and individually cut.
No two opals are ever the same - each piece is one‑of‑a‑kind.
We source directly from small Australian miners and cutters.
Every opal comes from Queensland’s ethical, regulated opal fields.
All photos are taken with a macro lens, remember to check the opal dimensions before purchasing.
