Handmade from .999 fine silver by Pennsylvania opal cutter and silversmith, Michael Schaner, this bezel-set Australian crystal opal solitaire ring presents an alluring and lively color profile.
When viewed directly under bright light, whether it be outdoors or in sunlight, the freeform shaped 1.6ct opal appears as it does in photos and video: predominantly green and blue. When gently rotated, a brilliant, rolling flash of orange and red builds over the stone's resting color profile, like fire overtaking nature—a phenomenon that, even to the best of our photographer's ability, cannot be adequately captured by camera.
Though we at OpalPop like leaving little to a customer's surprise, we are confident the surprise that accompanies this particular stone is one that's sure to bring unexpected delight.
Being a handmade ring, signs of workmanship are visible along the metal's surface; these include file marks along the bezel and shank, as well as solder points where the bezel and shank connect. This makes the ring best-suited for those who admire one-of-a-kind, small-batch, at-home American craftsmanship and oppose mass-market, cookie-cutter jewelry pieces.
Approximate default ring size 8.25 US.
