Description from the seller
925 Silver Ring with First-Quality Australian Opal
Elegant ring made of 925 silver, enhanced by a natural, first-quality Australian opal, selected for the intensity of play-of-color and the overall quality of the gem.
The opal is mounted as a doublet, a traditional technique used in gemology to maximize the play-of-color while ensuring greater structural stability than a solid opal.
The gem displays a vivid, well-distributed play-of-color, with shifting reflections ranging from green to blue, with warmer accents emerging depending on the viewing angle and light. This optical behavior is typical of high-quality Australian opals and makes each specimen unique.
The full-bezel setting effectively protects the gem and harmoniously follows its shape, keeping the surface free to allow light to interact with the opal’s internal structure. The silver band, well-proportioned and comfortable, gives the ring an elegant yet assertive presence, suitable for everyday wear as well as a collection of natural gemstone jewelry.
Material: 925 Silver
Gem: Natural Australian Opal
Setting: Bezel (full)
Opal origin: Australia
Inner diameter: 18.5 mm
Opal gem measures: 20 × 7.5 mm
