Edwardian Opal & Diamond Ring, 15ct Gold

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Eva Antiques
Description

A stunning ring from the late Edwardian period, c1915. The ring is made from solid 15ct gold and has a delightful opal set in a rub over setting. The opal has a fairly flat blue appearance with a wonderful orange glow. It is complimented by four little diamonds set in a line on each shoulder. The diamonds are fairly random old rose cut diamonds and appear to be all original. One is particularly lovely and sticks up out of the setting a little more than the others. It seems to have been set this way and is secure.

The ring looks very pretty on the hand and the light really travels through the pretty opal. It is so difficult to capture an opal correctly in photos. I would say that the colour is most like the opal when pictured on the hand.

Details:

Age - Late Edwardian

Size - The opal measures approx 8.5mm by 6.2mm.

Ring Size - UK L 1/2 US 6 This ring could be resized.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Edwardian opal jewellery typically features delicate design, often incorporating gold or platinum mountings, accent diamonds, and light-reflecting gemstones that emphasise symmetry and refinement.

Edwardian rings frequently utilised 15ct or 18ct gold, platinum, opals, diamonds, pearls, and sapphires set with fine milgrain border details.

Authentic Edwardian gold rings often feature British purity hallmarks such as 15ct or 18ct, exhibit fine hand-carved or milgrain settings, and display light natural wear consistent with early twentieth-century origins.

An antique opal ring serves as a subtle accent piece for formal wear or can be layered alongside understated modern gold bands to complement contemporary jewellery collections.

Opals require delicate care due to their water content; gently wipe with a soft dry cloth and avoid submersion in water, chemical cleaners, or exposure to abrupt temperature changes.
