18K Yellow Gold Tiger Head Pendant

This tiger head pendant is carved in 18K yellow gold with heavy texturing throughout the mane and brow to mimic fur, and the face is worked with deep lines around the eyes, nose, and open jaw. The mouth is open with the fangs bared, and a cabochon opal is set between the teeth, held by curved claw-like prongs at the chin. The bail is textured to match the mane and set with a row of small round accent stones at its base. The opal itself shows broad flashes of green, blue, pink, and orange across a light body tone.
