Design
This classic is a truly hand-hammered ladies ring with a formal look in a split band, halo style design # 54 of our online design selection catalog. The halo follows the shape of the feature gem giving the ring a very well dressed look. The gems on the head are prong set in individual tubes for maximum visibility. The base under the head array is slotted and the head is elevated above the split band as well to allow extra light entrance into the array of gems.
Gemstones
The feature gemstone is a well polished 12.5 x 6.8 mm oval cab of natural Welo Opal weighing 2.84 carat. This naturally mined stone from Ethiopia is stable and untreated. It has a soft white translucent base and is full of colors, even better in hand than I can show on here. No dark spots and no cracks or chips. Opal is a birthstone for October.
The accents are sparkling natural White Sapphire 2.5 mm round expertly faceted gems with eye clean clarity that originated in Ceylon and have been heated by the traditional method only.
Sapphire is the birthstone of September. It is a 9 on Moh’s hardness scale and is known to be tough and suitable for everyday wear in most designs.
