Opal Stone: Romancing the Stone

I tend to agree, and I’m already excited about Opal’s lush collection.

With a penchant for architecture and all things organic, she took conceptual elements from pieces like her popular Zebra cuff (designed to bring to mind an African sunset) and melded them into the hardware of her exotic-skinned bags. Like the Se handbag, multiple layers of fine skin in pitch-perfect grey.

The handles and the feet? All 18- and 22-carat yellow gold. The skins? Only the best alligator, crocodile, and ostrich (she uses Grade One American alligator, which is only the belly). And the lining? The same decadent skin to match the outside! Opal also maintains that the interior of your bag is equally important, a second home to you, so to speak, as it contains important components of your life.

Fluid shapes, an elevated sense of whimsy, and materials to die for: Opal Stone is set to deliver only the best, with quality for women who know their worth it.
