Antique Edwardian 18ct Yellow Gold Opal And Diamond Quarter Hoop Ring
Please note, boxes are for display only unless otherwise stated.
Irresistible and timeless, our gorgeous Edwardian era 18ct yellow gold Opal and Diamond ring is designed in the ever popular quarter hoop style, showcasing three beautiful Australian cabochon opals, each displaying a stunning spectrum of colours which float across the surfaces, with flashes of blues, vivid greens and yellows against a blue background.
In between the Opals we find two sets of gleaming small diamonds which sparkle and compliment the Opals perfectly.
Striking and quite showy on the finger while remaining demure and elegant, suitable for careful every day wear. Presenting in very good antique condition, the shank has been carefully resized at some stage in its life, which has resulted in an ever so slight 'slimming' to the very rear of the shank. Upon assessment with our jeweller/gemmologist, their opinion was to leave it as is. It is definitely suitable to wear. Noting only for accuracy.
Overall, an incredibly pretty and standout antique ring of its kind, a pleasure to wear!

CONDITION
Very very good antique condition. As mentioned above this ring has been resized at some stage during its life, the very rear shank is very slightly ‘slim’. Our jeweller said to leave it as is, it is perfectly fine. We are noting this for accuracy only. Opals are lovely, no chips or damage, bright and exhibiting a vibrant bright play of colour. Diamonds are bright white and lively. Claws original and strong.
