Dyed Multicolor Opal Hand-Knotted Strand Necklace in Sterling Silver

There’s an undeniably sensuous allure to a hand-knotted strand of gemstones. Each bead moves with a fluid grace, the silk thread giving the necklace a supple drape that molds beautifully against the skin. In the hand, it feels alive—smooth, rhythmic, grounding. I love the way these strands can transform depending on how they’re styled—layered with other necklaces for a collected, bohemian look or worn alone for a vibrant pop of color. Each one is knotted on silk thread chosen to complement the stones, a small detail that makes the whole piece feel refined and intentional.

This strand features dyed multicolor opal gemstones in a joyful palette of pink, orange, turquoise, green, yellow, and lilac. Each 4mm smooth roundel glows softly from within, giving the necklace a luminous, candy-like radiance that instantly brightens your look. The color variation makes it endlessly versatile—playful yet sophisticated—and it layers beautifully with silver, gold, or other gemstone necklaces for a look that feels both artistic and modern.

Opal has long been celebrated as a stone of inspiration and creativity, believed to amplify joy, spontaneity, and self-expression. Even in its dyed form, the energy of opal invites color, light, and imagination into everyday wear.
