About our pendants
Thanks to the delicate eyelet, it almost looks as if you are wearing just a stone on a necklace.
We pick our stones ourselves at gemstone fairs. Among thousands of stones, we choose the ones that stand out: in shape, in quality, in an unexpected detail. In our atelier in Breda we drill a small, subtle hole and set the eyelet by hand. Nothing else is needed. The stone itself is the jewel.
Meaning of Opal
Honduran opal is a special matrix opal: the colorful precious opal is scattered within black volcanic basalt, which, as a dark background, beautifully highlights the colors. The opal formed when water full of dissolved silica settled into the small cavities of the basalt; the play of colors occurs because light refracts on the microscopic silica spheres that make up opal. Honduras has some of the oldest opal mines in the world, with always limited production. Because opal naturally contains some water, it is a rather soft stone that is best worn with care.
Meaning of Honduran Opal
Emotional Healing, Transformation & Inner Light
Honduran opal is a stone of emotional depth. The play of colors that emanates from the deep black symbolizes light emerging from darkness. The stone helps you to continue to see your own color and life force even in difficult times.
The stone supports emotional healing and the processing of feelings. It helps you gently release and process deeply buried emotions, so you start to feel lighter and clearer. Honduran opal brings movement where feelings were stuck.
Honduran opal also carries a transformative energy. The deep black with illuminating colors reminds you that change and growth can emerge precisely from dark times. A stone that supports you in shedding old layers and starting anew.
Thus, Honduran opal combines depth with light. A stone for those who want to process emotions, grow through change, and keep seeing their own inner light, even when it's dark.
Care
Remove your pendant when showering, swimming, bathing, and exercising, and avoid contact with perfume, soap, and sunscreen.

About Mónos
Mónos belongs to Clara and Dion. It started in 2021, when Dion was looking for a pendant like this himself and couldn't find one anywhere: a free-form stone, of beautiful quality, with a finish that didn't get in the way of the stone. So he started making them himself. Since 2024 we do it together.
The name Mónos comes from the Greek mono, one. Because of every stone, in this exact shape and colour, there is only one.

Frequently asked questions
Are these real gemstones?
Yes! 🌿
Our collection contains only real gemstones and crystals. Preferably as unique as possible and of high quality: gemstones you don't come across every day.
What is 'gold filled'?
Gold filled is often confused with gold plated, but they really are two different things. Gold plated is that thin layer of gold that quickly discolours, and almost everyone has had a disappointing experience with it.
Gold filled is something completely different: a thick layer of 14 karat gold rolled onto the base metal, with at least 5% real gold.
It hardly discolours, lasts for years of daily wear and is nickel-free. A very durable and affordable alternative to 14 karat gold.
Is your jewellery really handmade?
Absolutely! ❤️
Every piece is handmade with lots of care and love. This is what happens before a piece appears on our website:
- The hunt: We search gemstone fairs to select the most beautiful stones, one by one, on quality and shape.
- Making: Then we carefully drill a hole in each stone with a diamond drill and attach an eyelet. This lets you wear your piece the way you like: on a necklace or as an earring.
- Photography: And the best part? Every piece is unique! We show each piece with its own photo on our website, so you can choose your perfect shape yourself. There is only one of every stone, so you are guaranteed to hold something truly unique ❤️
How big is a piece?
Every piece has two photos. In the second photo you'll see my hand behind the piece, so you can judge the size. Note: these are men's hands, so maybe a bit bigger than the average reader's, haha :)
And if you really want to know exactly: my fingers are about 1.7 cm thick. Never thought I'd measure that, but maybe it helps, haha.
Is gift wrapping available?
Yes, it's always included! We wrap every order as a gift ❤️
Can the eyelet of a piece be changed?
Unfortunately not. The eyelets of our pieces are firmly glued and can't be swapped. Hopefully you'll find another gemstone or shape that speaks to you ❤️
