The Story Behind the Product

Yogesh Kakkar is a Delhi based artisan who makes white opal pendants and other jewelry items. It has been a family business for him. His father settled in New Delhi after India's Independence in 1947. 'Our ancestors were in this profession. My father learned from his father and so on,' he says. Yogesh credits himself for expanding his families business. Besides the opal pendant he makes all sorts of jewelry items with or without semi-precious stones. He says it can take over a day to make one pendant. He lives with his wife and two school going daughters.

Lovely, shimmering opals by a craftsman (Phouka, Plano, TX, 2008-01-11)

I ordered the earrings several months after purchasing the matching necklace. The opals are substantial, plenty big to get notice dangling from my ears. The craftsmanship is excellent. The earrings are solid, and I have no fear they will slip out or break. I was delighted to find a slip of paper with information about the maker, a jeweler in India who makes his living from what he sells. It makes it much more personal and gave me great pleasure to know I was his customer. I only wish Overstock would provide that information up front, because it would strongly influence my purchasing decision. To sum up: gorgeous earrings well worth the price, and the maker deserves your support.

Great Buy! (doglog, Philadelphia, PA., 2008-01-11)

Before purchasing these earrings, I read the previous reviews. For the most part, the reviews were positive. However, the few negative ones said these earrings were small, child-like jewelry in size and not worth the money. Despite those remarks, I thought I would give them a try. Well, they were quite the contrary! The stones have great fire, their size is substantial and the workmanship is superior! I bought them as a gift to give to a friend and she is just as pleased with them as I was. They are a great buy and I highly recommend them!!
