Description
A very lovely antique opal ring, having been created in the c1910-1920s era. It carries the old stamp for “9 CT” on the inside of the band itself. The opal is a nice example too, with a pale blue to orange base and fiery purple flashes on its surface…there are vivid flashes of greens and turquoise in there too. I have had these in the past in items of jewellery and have always been advised they were jelly (water) opals.
I love the decoration to either side of the bezel-set opal…just enough but not too distracting from the stone itself. I also love that typical 1920s design, as it sits snugly on the finger at a low level. Sleek and comfortable to wear. The face of the ring measures approx 1.3cm by 1.2cm. UK size N.5 (US size 7).
In pleasing condition with light wear in line with her age. A fabulous opal ring, ready to wear as soon as you receive.
I shall post by special delivery within the UK or else by international Royal Mail service. Please note the ring boxes in the images are not always included, however I will send in a new gift ring box to protect the piece. Thank you.
