This is a wonderful gift for all owl enthusiasts and owl jewelry collectors. A Northern Owl photo is featured on this necklace. The owl picture is on a domed cameostone treated with a mother-of-pearl / opal glaze that shines up through the translucent image. Tip the cream colored stone in the light for a discreet opal effect with the bird's feathers appearing almost metallic.

You have several choices with this owl necklace. Chose a setting in Antiqued gold (as shown) or an antiqued silver frame - both with a four prong, rope design and holding a 30mm X 40mm cabochon. Measures 1 1/2" wide by 2" high. Included are bail and necklace chain. Choose 24" cable chain with lobster claw fastener (as seen in sample) or 24" ball chain with spring fastener. Metals in frame and chain are Gold or silver plated brass.

• There are eighteen species of owls in North America.

• Owls cannot move their eyes from side to side but can rotate their heads three-quarters of the way around. They but have extremely flexible necks and can move their heads rather quickly which give the illusion of a complete turn.

• Owls see perfectly well during the day, and exceptionally well at night.

• Owls have the best hearing of all birds. Their ears are located on the sides of their heads and are hidden by feathers. The so-called "ear-tufts" on the top of the head aid in camouflage and recognition between individuals and have nothing to do with hearing.
