221210-6 Pear Shape Opal Doublet

This Australian opal doublet (No. 221210-6) is a gem-quality stone displaying an extraordinary full-spectrum play-of-color — vivid rolling flashes of red, emerald green, electric blue, and warm orange fire across a deep, dark body tone. The stone's natural teardrop/pear silhouette gives it exceptional design versatility, making it a standout centrepiece for bespoke fine jewelry.

Ready for immediate setting, this doublet is precision-finished with a polished dome face and a flat base, ideal for bezel or collet settings. Its unique geometry — a curved dome with a straight flat edge — lends itself beautifully to creative design solutions, such as the addition of accent diamonds or gemstones to complete a circular or symmetrical composition.

Design Inspiration — Jeweller's Recommendations:

The AI-generated concept images above demonstrate two of our favourite design directions for this stone:

Bezel Ring — 925 Sterling Silver with Diamond Accents
A polished sterling silver bezel setting cradles the opal's curved dome, while three brilliant-cut diamonds are set along the flat edge to complete a circular silhouette. This design balances the organic beauty of the opal with the precision of fine metalwork — a sophisticated choice for a statement cocktail ring or engagement alternative.

Pendant Necklace — 925 Sterling Silver
The same diamond-accent treatment translates beautifully into a pendant, where the opal hangs as the centrepiece on a fine silver chain. The circular composition created by the three diamonds gives the piece a refined, gallery-worthy finish.

We encourage jewellers to use these concepts as a starting point and bring their own creative vision — whether that's yellow gold, rose gold, pavé diamonds, or a minimalist bezel. This stone rewards bold, confident design.

What is a Doublet?

Opal doublets consist of a thin layer of natural opal bonded to a black or dark-coloured base, typically made of a dark-coloured mineral such as ironstone or basalt. The base provides a dark background that enhances the colours of the opal layer, making it appear more vibrant and intense. Opal doublets are typically less expensive than solid natural opals because they are made from a smaller amount of natural opal, and the base material can be less expensive. They are commonly used in jewellery making and also in other decorative items.

Doublets

Doublets are a very good entry-level for opal lovers to access Natural Australian Opal. With natural crystal opal set on a solid dark silica base highlights & accentuates the colours found in the opal. Normally set in a bezel setting, this protects your opal while allowing jewellery designers the freedom to design and enhance the inherited features. The cost is normally one and half times less than that of a solid opal of equal features. Doublets are very much undersold but they still have that magic that a top-class solid opal achieves.
