The stone is best worn point-down, where its directional play of color reveals itself fully.  In most lighting, the opal reads as cool, bluish ironstone—earthy, natural, understated.  But in strong light, particularly with the light source behind the wearer, the surface ignites.  Vivid red and electric blue dominate, though flashes of green, yellow, and violet appear across the center and left third of the stone.  The effect is sudden and dramatic—color appearing from what moments earlier looked like solid rock.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe opal contains visible ironstone inclusions and natural texture.  This is not a polished showroom gemstone.  It is a piece of Australian earth that happens to carry fire.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe ring spans approximately 12.1 millimeters across the finger.  On a size 12 hand, it presents as balanced and intentional.  On smaller hands, it will feel oversized.  Most black-background studio photos were taken on a size 12 finger to provide an accurate sense of proportion for the intended wearer.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis piece was acquired from a Wenatchee, Washington estate and is believed to be American made, though no definitive maker’s mark confirms this.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is not a ring for someone seeking symmetry or perfection.  It is for someone who appreciates natural materials in their raw form—silver, gold, and stone—assembled without pretense.  Outdoorsmen, artists, and collectors of uncommon pieces will recognize it immediately for what it is.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Stone:\u003c\/b\u003e Natural Boulder Opal, solid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eorigin: Quilpie, Queensland, Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebrightness of color play: B4 of 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebody tone: N\/A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eshape: triangular freeform cabochon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003estone measurements (millimeters): 8.73mm x 16.43mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003estone measurements (inches): 0.33\" x 0.66\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eplay of color description: red-blue multicolor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Setting: \u003c\/strong\u003eMen's Bezel-Set Solitaire Ring with Gold Nugget Accents\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ering metal: .925 sterling silver, solid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003enugget metal: approximately 21k gold, solid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etop of ring width: 12.10mm (0.5\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ering height from finger: 7.23mm (0.25\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ebottom of shank width: 4.99mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ering weight: 13.77 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edefault ring size: 12.00 US\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OpalPop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47595953782996,"sku":"Jericho","price":1480.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/9311\/9444\/files\/mens-australian-boulder-opal-ring-sterling-silver.jpg?v=1772325741","url":"https:\/\/opalpop.com\/products\/jericho-mens-australian-boulder-opal-ring-in-sterling-silver-with-21k-gold-nuggets","provider":"OpalPop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
