Antique Victorian Opal Carved Half Hoop Ring

$2,850.00

This is one stunning antique Victorian (1837-1901) ring. Five opals interspersed with Rose Cut diamond spacers are set in a richly hued 18k yellow gold. Dating to approximately 1890, this Victorian charmer’s iridescent opals shimmer with specks of green, blue, orange, and pink against the luminous alabaster background. Its play of light is mesmerizing, and depending on the source of light, its magical glow will surprise you with a different expression. The graduated top tapers across the finger for a flattering fit, and the hand carved scroll mount is a fine example of the high quality craftsmanship of the period. This beauty can hold its own but stacks nicely with other bands as well. Antique rings of this vintage, style, and quality are becoming more and more difficult to find. This ring would be a fantastic choice with which to celebrate an engagement, wedding day, or an anniversary. If October is your month, what a perfect present this ring would make.

In excellent antique condition for a ring that is over 130 years old. Claws have been retipped and stones polished for another century of enjoyment. Gently cleaned and ready to wear. Ring box for display only and not included in the ring purchase.
