Description

This Art Deco opal and diamond ring is crafted in 9ct yellow gold and makes a distinctive antique statement ring. The centre features an oval cabochon-cut opal, framed on each side by two old-cut diamonds and set in white gold. The opal shows soft flashes of green, yellow and subtle pink as it moves in the light, while the diamonds add contrast and brightness.

Why We Love This Ring

This antique opal ring combines two very different types of light performance. The opal gives softer, shifting colour, while the old-cut diamonds provide brighter flashes at either side. Consequently, the ring feels distinctive without relying on a large or heavily embellished setting. The elongated centre stone also gives good finger coverage, while the slim yellow gold shank keeps the proportions balanced and wearable.

How to Style

This Art Deco opal and diamond ring suits someone drawn to unusual gemstones, Art Deco jewellery and pieces with visible vintage character. It works beautifully as a statement ring, alternative engagement ring or special occasion piece. However, because opal is softer than diamond, it benefits from more considered everyday wear. The slim yellow gold shank also makes the ring easy to pair with simple gold bands or other fine vintage rings.

• WEIGHT: 2.21g
• CONDITION: The ring is in good antique condition, with light wear consistent with age and previous use. There is some slight brownish discolouration visible at the back of the opal, which could be from natural internal variation, historic staining or another feature of the stone. However, it is localised and does not detract significantly from the face-up appearance, where the opal continues to show attractive colour play. The diamonds and settings appear secure, and the ring is ready to wear.
