DID YOU KNOW?: Opal is the product of seasonal rains that drenched dry ground in regions such as Australia’s semi-desert “outback.” The showers soaked deep into ancient underground rock, carrying dissolved silica (a compound of silicon and oxygen) downward. These silica deposits form opals.

Opal may exhibit a spectrum of colors called play-of-color. When this is set against a dark background, it is known as black opal. Australia is the source of most of the world’s fine opal. Opal represents hope.

The opal's dramatic play-of-color has inspired writers to compare it to fireworks, galaxies and volcanoes. Bedouins also had a colorful theory: They believed opal held lightning and fell from the sky during thunderstorms. Ancient Greeks thought opals bestowed the gift of prophesy and protection from disease. Europeans long maintained opal to be a symbol of purity, hope and truth. Hundreds of years ago, opal was believed to embody the virtues and powers of all colored stones.

Give new life to old, dated jewelry & gemstones!

More people are turning their beloved diamonds, gemstones, gold and antique jewelry into new, more contemporary designs through a "Make-Over" by Diamonds On The Key. Schedule a one-on-one appointment with designer, Christina Termine, to discuss how your existing jewelry, which you no longer wear or like, can be easily transformed into a new desirable design!

Here are some recent jewelry "Make-Overs" re-designed to fit each client's request and personal style. See before & after photos!

This client’s 3 separate rings kept twisting and turning on her finger and had yellowed over time due to the rhodium finish having worn off from friction and wear & tear.

To fix the twisting, the 3 rings were soldered together and they were refinished, bright and like-new. Missing diamonds were replaced and they were steam cleaned and polished.

The "bottom heavy" designs of the former mounting of this client's diamond stud earrings caused the earrings to "droop forward" on the client's earlobe. Excessively heavy prongs covered up the diamonds and made them uncomfortable to wear. The diamonds were reset into new 3 prong V martini settings, which follows the shape of the diamond's girdle down to its culet, in order to eliminate excess space between the diamond, mounting and earlobe. This achieves the diamond "sitting up" properly on the earlobe. We were even able to re-use the client's original threaded posts and jumbo screw backings, so that the "make over" was extremely economical!
