Overview:
Stylish vintage natural opal, turquoise & lapis lazuli ring crafted in 14 karat yellow gold (circa 1980s to 1990s).
Natural opal measures 14mm x 9mm (estimated at 6.50 carats). The opal is in excellent condition and free of cracks or chips. Turquoise measures 2mm (0.50 carats total estimated weight) and 2mm lapis lazuli (0.50 carats total estimated weight).
The opal is full of color and fire (opals are difficult to photograph and the true colors of the opal does not show in the images). The color matrix is vivid from mermaid green to red, orange, purple, blue and turquoise. The accenting turquoise & lapis is a surprising and unique combination and the statement ring adds a nice pop of color on the hand. The low rise ring (10mm - 0.39 inches) sits comfortably on the finger.
The ring is in very good condition. We have not cleaned it in order to preserve the patina and collector value.
