Opal, the birthstone of October, represents confidence, faith, and hope. People who have it as their birthstone have a certain magnetism, which helps them make friends very easily. Opals were considered among the most magical of gemstones. Because of their highly desirable play of colours and stunning natural attributes, the opal was highly valued and coveted, and used to be considered the stone of kings. It is also the stone given to celebrate 14 years of marriage.
The Designer
Susan MacLeod is a Scottish jeweller with an obsession for making gorgeous painterly jewels entwined with botanical forms. Susan’s Klimt-like colour palette and loose expressive sketchbooks are such an important part of her process; you can often find her out in the wild, drawing and finding inspiration in those quiet, concentrated moments.
Each piece of her jewellery has been individually pierced with a traditional handsaw, so no two will be the same. Susan’s love of hands-on craft skills shines through in her botanical designs that spontaneously sprout and develop through her passion for playful sketchbooking before bringing them to life in precious metals.
"I create jewellery inspired by the beauty in our natural surroundings. From delicate petal structures to bold sea coloured opals. I like to work with precious metals through an intuitive and playful process to create unique and personal jewellery for its wearer. I have a fascination with vivid sea colours and wild botanicals, which I like to incorporate into my design process." - Susan MacLeod
