About

 

Hello, I'm Sheila Johnston

 

 

My Story

I love the joy and excitement of travel. There's little better for me than the rush to your senses you feel when you step off the airplane to explore some place exotic and new. My most vivid memory of this kind of experience was the first time I landed in Mexico. Many years ago I went there for an emmersion stay to learn Spanish. At the time I had never experienced anything quite like it. I knew that at some point in my life I wanted to create a business that not only quenched my thirst for travel, but that made a connection between the country where I live and the other countries where I love to travel. The photo below is from Panama.

 

 

My purpose
My goal is to capture and provide you with a similar joy and excitement that I feel when designing and sourcing my opal jewelry. If you like opals and also like the originality of unique or unusual types of opals that most have probably never seen, you're in the right place. My jewelry and the opals that you'll find in my collections are not only unique in design, but are also unique in the types of opals that are used. Different from the more common opals you often see in most jewelry stores.
I have developed deep relationships with my partners who supply me with the opals I use to make my jewelry and the other finished opal jewelry that I carry. I also believe that in a small way we are connecting the world and creating a better understanding of other cultures and people. And of course, providing the greatest variety of opal jewelry you've ever seen! 

 

I love using an extensive variety of opals for my jewelry.  Most I bet you've never seen before!

Pendant was perfect!

I purchased a pendant for my mom and she loved it. The quality and color of the stones are bright and beautiful. Shipping was fast and everything came out perfect. 😍 Thank you!

Over the Top Pink Peruvian Earrings

I love these Over the Top Pink Peruvian Earrings. The combination of five different sets of beads, pearls, and tourmaline blends well together. And given their wire type, you can easily take off the charms, so you can wear them in lots of different ways. The best part is that they feel really nice and comfortable to wear.
