Mermaid tears is my Large Gilson opal nugget encased in borosilicate pendant design, individually made in hand blown glass and photographed so the exact piece you see at the time of purchase is the one you receive.
This Gilson Opal necklace features a pink opal nugget with flashes of light blue, light green, and a hint of golden yellow, fully encased as an Opal in borosilicate teardrop. This opal teardrop charm has a bold, dimensional look that makes it a true opal glass pendant and a striking piece of unique opal jewelry. If you love Heady boro lampwork, trippy boro charm designs, or a boho pyrex necklace style, this one is made to stand out.
Measures approximately 1" x .6"
Hanging options: pendant only, silver-plated snake chain in 16" • 18" • 20" • 22"
Leather cord finished with a sterling silver, silver tone, or gold tone lobster claw clasp
Custom leather cords available in your preferred length and color
Choker lengths 14"–16" available by request
Each pendant is lampworked, kiln-annealed in a digitally controlled kiln for strength and durability, and arrives gift boxed. This blown glass jewelry design makes a beautiful Large opal gift for anyone who loves the ocean, mermaid-inspired art, or a dramatic teardrop dangle necklace.
Because each piece is handmade, future pendants may have slightly different color tones, but the pendant shown in the photos is the exact one you will receive. Once it sells, it’s gone forever.

I recommend gently polishing the sterling silver using a treated silver polishing cloth. There are many excellent brands available, and they work very well to remove tarnish. I include a silver polishing cloth with every purchase for your convenience. I do not recommend liquid dipping solutions, as they can cause the silver to tarnish more quickly over time and often require frequent re-polishing once used.
If an item is returned without the specially discounted-priced leather cord, you will be charged the full price of $15-$24 for the leather cord. I do offer handmade leather cords for sale in my store. However, when purchasing a pendant, I offer a very special discounted price, as I believe my work looks best with the leather cord.
Custom Orders Welcome
I’m happy to offer custom orders when they fit my signature style, such as creating a piece in a different color palette or slightly different shape or size. I do not copy or recreate other artists’ designs. If you’re looking for a specific style created by another artist, I recommend reaching out to them directly for a custom request.
Wholesale pricing is available on a sliding scale for qualifying orders. I also offer a separate product line designed specifically for museum gift shops and similar venues. Wholesale pricing begins with a minimum purchase of 50 items. Please feel free to contact me for details and availability.
I am the sole artist creating every piece you see in my Etsy shop. Each item is individually made by me using a GTT Sidewinder torch and a variety of high-quality borosilicate glass. All work is carefully kiln-annealed overnight in a digitally controlled kiln for durability. I also photograph every finished piece individually, so the item shown is the exact piece you will receive.
