Continuous Opal Tennis Necklace and Bracelet in 18K Gold
Specifications & Materials
- Stones: 20-25+ Calibrated Opals (depending on length and style).

- Metal: Solid 18K Yellow Gold (Y/G).
- Setting: continuous, custom-linked Bezel.

Design & Origin
- Each opal is bezel-set in 18K gold, creating a seamless, uninterrupted line of color. The stones shift softly between milk-glass white, pale blue, and flashes of fire when in motion — a gentle crescent of radiance that appears to glow from within.
- Our modern update to the classic tennis piece, designed to create a continuous, fluid line of pure illumination on the skin.
- Opal type: Features uniform White Precious Opals selected for consistent brilliance and color-matched luminosity.
Craftsmanship
- Hand-finished in our Kansas City workshop, the Moonlight Strand is designed for fluid wear — elegant on its own, striking when layered, and timeless in silhouette.
- We use an intensive process where each individual opal is bezel-set and then hand-assembled.
- The custom-linked hinges are engineered to lay flat and articulate perfectly, ensuring a seamless, fluid rhythm that is comfortable to wear.
- Features a secure, integrated clasp with safety mechanisms.
Craftsmanship
Every Vinca piece is made by hand in our Kansas City workshop—the same studio we've operated since 1987. We use traditional techniques: hand-setting stones, hand-polishing metals, and inspecting every piece before it leaves our bench.
Our diamonds are GIA-certified and conflict-free. Our gemstones are sourced from trusted suppliers we've worked with for decades.

What Our Clients Think
I had a wonderful experience at Vinca Jewelry today. I came in to get my wedding rings resized, expecting to pick them back up in a week or so. Not only did they finish them the same day but they were ready only 1.5 hours later and as sparkling as the first day I put them on.
Kloe LeFevre
Wonderful Experience!
Amazing service with a real family atmosphere. The team was friendly and caring, and they did a beautiful job repairing my jewelry. Great selection, fair prices, and people you can trust. Highly recommend!
Louis Aguilar
Although I live out of state, there is no one I trust more to repair my jewelry than Vinca. Vinca would not settle for a stone that did not quite match my ring, and waited until the proper stone could be found. That kind of care and expertise is priceless!
Amy Kumagai
There’s no other place I trust than Vinca. I bought my wife’s engagement ring and our wedding bands at Vinca and we just celebrated our 18th anniversary. My wife needed her ring resized and cleaned and even though we no longer live in the Kansas City area, we wouldn’t think of taking it anywhere else. Highly recommend Vinca to all. It is a treasure of the Country Club Plaza.
Jonathan Kelley
The staff at Vinca are so lovely and helpful and not pushy!! They encouraged us to walk around the Plaza and think on our purchase, offered to clean my existing ring, and were just a genuine pleasure. We found a very unique a perfect ring for my fiancée and I couldn't be happier with the experience.

Common Questions
Most Vinca pieces are made to order. This allows us to focus on proportion, detail, and finish rather than volume. If a piece is in stock, timelines may be shorter — we’ll confirm once you inquire or place an order.
Production typically takes 4–6 weeks, depending on the piece and any customization. For engagement rings or bespoke work, timelines may vary slightly based on stone sourcing and design complexity.
Yes. Many pieces can be customized in stone choice, metal, or proportion. Some designs are more flexible than others — if you’re unsure, reach out and we’ll guide you honestly.
We do. Bespoke pieces begin with a conversation and are designed from scratch at the bench. If you’re looking for something entirely personal, this is often the right path.
We work primarily in solid gold and platinum, using natural and lab-grown stones depending on the project. Material choices are always discussed with care and transparency.
If you don’t know your size, we can help. We offer guidance, sizing options, and resizing where possible. For engagement rings, this is very common.
Most rings can be resized within a reasonable range. Some designs or materials may have limitations — we’ll always flag this upfront.
All Vinca jewelry is made in our Kansas City workshop. Design and craftsmanship happen in-house, at the bench.
Yes. We offer cleaning, maintenance, and repair services for Vinca pieces. Jewelry is meant to be worn — we’re here to support it over time.
