Meet Dalia,

A Vintage 18k Gold Mosaic Opal Pendant with Art Deco Influence

A shimmering mosaic of history, artistry, and light. This vintage 18k gold opal pendant features 18 opal inlays, each with its own unique fire, arranged in a striking geometric design reminiscent of Art Deco jewelry.

Set against a subtly banded black onyx backing, each opal shard plays with color in its own way—some glowing with electric blues and greens, others flickering with warm reds and oranges. Some of the opals display fine, natural crazing—a delicate signature of time that adds character to their fire.

The arched gold frame, with its structured symmetry, evokes the bold elegance of the 1920s Art Deco era, making this piece feel both historic and timeless. Imported from Japan, where precision craftsmanship meets artistic vision, this pendant is a truly one-of-a-kind treasure.

18” gold plated sterling silver box chain included.
