The most striking vintage opal ring. The long opal in the centre has an even, gray-ish background colour, with lively and distinct flashed of green and blue. The opal is accented by four lines of three old cut diamonds in milgrained palladium rubover settings, and sits nice and low to the finger on a slim and tapering 18k yellow gold shank.
Accompanied by an independent jewellery report from IGR.
