Description
This pipe opal has ridges of boulder material on its underside that show through the top like gorgeous underwater landscapes. Violet, blue, aqua and pink shades and shimmers are highlighted by the fringe of stones along the lower edge--tanzanite, blue sapphire, apatite, pink sapphire and amethyst. The appearance of this opal really changes from every angle--appearing lighter and darker and always fascinating. The opal is wrapped in 22k gold, beads wrapped in 14k headpins and the silver is oxidized to near black.
Measures size 8 1/2 on medium width band.

Wendy Stauffer Jewelry
I've a degree in biology and have always been fascinated by the anatomy and morphology of plants and animals. At the same time, I've felt a strong pull to design and create. Transforming gemstones, wire, and sheets of metal into flowers, vines, and botanical abstractions is a natural culmination of these two paths.
My work explores leaf and petal motifs and the rhythmic rise-and-fall wave patterns found in nature. While freeform and organic, my creations are tempered by an underlying nod to structure and balance. The juxtaposition of raw and organic with delicate and romantic accents is another common theme.
In the studio, I often combine wire wrapping with traditional metalsmithing techniques in unique and original ways. I frequently pair wire-wrapped fringe accents with bezel-set stones.
