{"product_id":"dino-kette-opal-optik","title":"Synthetic Opal Dinosaur Necklace","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Synthetic Opal Dinosaur\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dinosaur necklace carries a small long-necked dinosaur of 12 x 15 mm with a spiky back. It is made of synthetic opal, meaning a stone made artificially and not a natural opal that has grown in the earth. Its body shimmers with many tiny dots of color that look like stardust in the light. The dinosaur comes in white and in lilac. The chain passes through a fine hole drilled in its head, so it hangs upright and looks to the side. It is the most playful pendant in the line and adds a cheerful touch to simple outfits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can choose between 925 sterling silver and 14K gold-filled. 14K gold-filled means that a thick layer of real gold is firmly bonded to a base metal, and it holds up to everyday life far better than thin gold plating. Sterling silver stands for a silver content of 92.5 percent. The dinosaur glides on a box chain made of tiny box-shaped links that drapes smoothly. In my studio in Oberhausen, I thread each dinosaur necklace by hand and take a close look at every spike. You decide the length: 45 cm (17.7 in) or 40 cm (15.7 in). The pendant is light, so the necklace still feels comfortable on your neck after hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning of the Dinosaur\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDinosaurs ruled the earth until they died out about 66 million years ago. Long-necked dinosaurs such as Brachiosaurus were among the largest land animals of all time. In Lower Saxony, Germany, a small long-necked dinosaur was even discovered: Europasaurus. The dinosaur on your neck stands for strength with a smile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCaring for Your Dinosaur Necklace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe necklace can stay on in the shower, because water is no problem. But make sure perfume, body lotion, chlorine, and salt water don't constantly get on the dinosaur, or its surface may become duller. Take the necklace off to swim and put it back on afterward. After showering, pat it dry with a soft cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSynthetic opal is less hard than quartz and can chip at the spikes if it takes a strong knock. So keep the necklace on its own in its box. Remove skin oils and dust with a dry microfiber cloth. A soft cloth makes silver bright again, and your dinosaur will shine like it did on the first day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Handmade Art by Carola","offers":[{"title":"Gold \/ White \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55680189333833,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-GW45","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ White \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55680189366601,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-GW40","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Lilac \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55680189399369,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-GL45","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Lilac \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55680189432137,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-GL40","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ White \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55680189464905,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-SW45","price":109.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ White \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55680189497673,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-SW40","price":109.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Lilac \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55680189530441,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-SL45","price":109.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Lilac \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55680189563209,"sku":"OLDIN-KET-SL40","price":109.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/1419\/5003\/files\/dino-kette-opal-optik-05-groesse.jpg?v=1792486737","url":"https:\/\/by-carola.com\/en\/products\/synthetic-opal-dinosaur-necklace","provider":"Handmade Art by Carola","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
