DESCRIPTION (Please scroll to the bottom to view video)


We wonder sometimes how pieces of jewellery survive at all let alone in such incredible condition as some pieces do… this strikingly pretty Opal ring is crisply hallmarked and date stamped for 1886 and is in almost the condition she would have been when handcrafted 137 years ago.

Designed as a five stone half hoop and set with a series of five graduated solid white Opals all of which display a lovely play of colour.

Modelled in 18ct rose gold and what we describe as a ‘quality make’.. beautifully hand crafted with care and skill seen in this era.

An asset to any jewellery collection and dare we say perfect for all our Opal lovers!
