A 1950's Heirloom Opal & Diamond Halo Engagement Ring
Like a butterfly's wing, colors shimmer and shift between green and orange in this natural Mintabie semi-crystal opal. The surrounding halo, set with half of a carat of round brilliant-cut diamonds, is decorated with thoughtful filigree designs on the side of its gallery. Stamped "PM900", a platinum stamp used in Japan from the 1960's and prior, this 1950's-era piece is a classic example of the country's artistry and dedication to excellence.
