Unearthed from the quarry, we found this Australian opal gem of infinite beauty...

Introducing Quarry, an exclusive and unique Australian opal pendant necklace. Carefully recycled from a vintage 1960's Russian/Ukraine watch mechanism, Quarry is encased in Sterling Silver 925.

Set with 16 rubies that were embedded to reduce friction (original by the watchmaker), the star of the show is the majestic Australian opal with its various hues of greens and blues which breathe life into this bespoke pendant necklace. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this Australian opal pendant in silver is a true testament to the mesmerising allure of nature's finest gemstones.

Each Australian opal is unique so your piece will be one-of-a-kind – no two are exactly alike!
PENDANT: Pendant. 18mm x 29mm diameter.

MATERIAL: Sterling Silver 925. Stainless Steel Chain.

GEMSTONE: Australian Opal. Please keep in mind while we will try our best to use opals that are most matching to the one shown, every stone is unique to itself!

MECHANISM: Recycled from a vintage 1960's Russian watch movement, embedded with 16 original rubies (jewels).

WHICH CHAIN? QUARRY is a medium sized pendant. The Box chain at Medium (60cm) works well casually on a shirt, or opt to wear it with a Short chain (45cm) for a more visible look.
Processing Times: 1-3 Days to handcraft your order.

Australia: 1-2 Working Days

International: 8-12 Working Days
What chain length should I pick?

MEDIUM (60cm) is by far our most popular choice, as it sits around chest height. SHORT (45cm) can be suitable if you’d like to wear the pendant closer to your neck, and LONG (75cm) works well with larger designs. Check our Sizing Guide for more help (you can find this below the price).

Does the watch still work?

Our watch mechanisms are upcycled from vintage, obsolete timepieces that were beyond repair. They are purely decorative and do not work anymore, unless specified so!
