Mesmerizing and otherworldly, this ring centers a fiery volcanic precious opal whose surface erupts with brilliant flashes of rainbow colors. The stone's iridescence is ever-changing, alive with internal light that seems to move from within. Bezel-set in your choice between the rich warmth of gold or the sleek contrast of silver, each metal offering a different dialogue with the precious opal's fiery dance. A celebration of the untamed beauty of all natural phenomena, this ring is a nod to the earth’s colorful wonders high and low — from northern lights to volcanic eruptions.
There are two metal choices:
• Gold: Solid 14k yellow gold.
• Silver: Solid sterling silver band and stone seat. Solid fine silver bezel.
The precious opal is known for its “play of color” — a unique shifting display of iridescent hues — and its name is derived from the Latin word opalus, which comes from the Ancient Greek word opállios, meaning “to see a change of color.” It is believed to symbolize hope, purity, confidence, creativity, and inspiration.
Opal is one of the birthstones for October and marks the 14th anniversary.
