Here we have a dazzling late Art Deco period entirely handmade natural precious crystal opal and diamond ring in platinum, 5.8 carats total weight.
The opal here is rare indeed! It is colorless cut into a high dome hemisphere - the cabochon perfectly symmetrical and every color of the rainbow appears in intense playful delightful splashes like confetti! The colors span the entire surface of the cabochon and into the transparent natural opal there are no dull areas of this opal. Intense reds are present making this rare opal even more valuable.
Of wonder to me is the extra fine quality of the workmanship - this entirely handmade ring has exquisite refined details right down to the pierced gallery under the opal and the filigree lace like accents to the shoulders of this masterpiece.
The huge natural untreated precious opal measures 12.0mm by 11.2mm by 6.4mm and weighs 5.5 carats.
There are six end set VS clarity F color diamond baguettes with a total carat weight of 0.30 carats set as accents for perfect sparkle!
The total carat weight of the opal and diamonds is 5.8 carats.
This ring is a size 6 US and is sizable within a range.
Inside the shank it has a platinum fineness stamp, testing confirms solid platinum.
It weighs 6.33 grams.
The opal and diamonds span the entire top of the finger from side to side- the effect is luxurious and very silver screen! This ring is elegant, bold, feminine and eye poppingly gorgeous!
The opal and diamond set face of the ring measures 3/4" side to side by 1/2" long along the hand and rises 7/16" high off the finger (19mm x 12mm x 11mm). I adore how the high dome cabochon allows you to enjoy the opal ring from every angle you can see the ring.
This exquisite antique ring would make a perfect choice for a unique engagement or wedding ring. It's the perfect celebration of a unique person...a once in a lifetime love....a special occasion. This is an heirloom quality ring. There is only one in the world like this!

The photos form part of the description. Like all colored stones there is a color variation that occurs in different lighting conditions both inside but also outside, even the time of day can make the color of a stone appear a little different. We do our best to show colors as we see them. Color perception is highly individual and some people can perceive more colors than others, also colors can appear somewhat different on different screens and devices due to variations in screen hardware and device display settings.
Precious opal will look different in every different lighting condition and from every angle! Such is the appeal and mystique of this exquisitely rare fine quality opal.
