Opal, Jet, Tzavorite Brooch

This brooch, designed for the year of the Snake, depicts a snake formed through a combination of opal, jet, and tzavorite. The spectacularly vibrant Boulder Opal creating the snake's hood, introduces shifting light along the body, while highly polished Jet provides a deep, dark contrast that defines the form. Tzavorite accents add sharp points of green, drawing the eye along the snake's body. The contrast between luminous black jet body and the vibrant Opal create a feeling of movement. The brooch makes an exceptional statement when worn as a lapel pin.
