#alternativebirthstone

[dawnchari-blog]

Brown opal nuggets, from which white moonstones with blue flash are suspended. Add highly reflective Swarovski crystals, with iridescent blue, and you have a kinetic design that flashes and winks, yet is still demure. Opals are featured in October; they are the October birthstone. Moonstone is an alternative October birthstone. Opals refract the light, causing lightplay - in this case a white flash of light in the stones, and in the case of gemstone opals, flashes of color. Moonstones also have this quality, and when you move these earrings around you see different things from all sides.
