Description

This October birthstone necklace sets a pear-shaped natural Ethiopian opal in a smooth bezel, with soft flashes of iridescent colour as it catches the light. Choose 925 sterling silver, 9k gold plated or 9k rose gold plated.

The opal is petite at around 7 × 5 mm, a delicate everyday piece that layers easily with finer chains. A meaningful gift for October birthdays.

  • Metal: 925 Sterling Silver; silver, 9k gold plated or 9k rose gold plated
  • Gemstone: Natural Ethiopian opal, pear-shaped cabochon, approx. 7 × 5 mm
  • Setting: Bezel
  • Chain: 16 or 18 inch, each with a 2 inch extender, or pendant only

Each stone is natural, so colour and inclusions vary slightly.

Meaning and Symbolism

Opal is the October birthstone, symbolising creativity, emotional expression and inner light. Known for its natural play of colour, opal reflects shifting hues that represent individuality, imagination and personal truth.

For those born in October, opal is associated with emotional balance, intuition and self-expression. It is traditionally believed to support openness, creativity and the ability to move through change with confidence and clarity.

Opal’s ever-changing colours have made it a meaningful stone for transformation and authenticity, symbolising the freedom to express every layer of self. Rather than one fixed tone, opal reflects many, mirroring emotional depth and creative energy.

Whether worn as an October birthstone or chosen for its luminous beauty, opal jewellery represents individuality, inspiration and embracing your inner glow.

Zodiac and Sun, Moon and Rising Meaning

October's opal birthstone is closely linked with Libra and Scorpio, making this necklace a thoughtful gift for wearers with Libra or Scorpio sun, moon, or rising placements who are drawn to creativity, intuition, balance, and transformation.

Very nice looking emerald necklace, I bought for our 55th Wedding Anniversary. It was good quality and a good price too. Emerald is my wife's favourite gem stone. She has a lovely 2 carot natural emerald ring we bought 50 years ago in Thailand. I might now get an emerald ring too from Indie or Harper for my May 2025 birthday.
