In almost every part of the world, the dragonfly symbolizes change and introspection - characteristics which are inherent in the opals of this bauble which change in every angle in every light. The dragonfly spends years as a nymph and undergoes significant transformation into an adult where it exists for only a month or two. It is often seen as a reminder that life is short, and we should embrace transformation and live in the moment. This is echoed in the transitional nature of the pendant which may rest on your lapel, join your scarf, or dangle around your neck when attached to a necklace. The red and Mexican fire opals along the body increase in size towards the head of the piece and extend on the wings to even larger Australian white opals and diamonds representing the power of each wingstroke - more than 20 times that of other insects. Show your fluidity, power, and self awareness by donning this beautiful bauble during your own fleeting moments across the water or the dancefloor.
