This is one of my very favourite rings..she is a very pretty fire Opal that displays greens, purples and blues with some red. I love Opals as much as Moonstones. The setting is 10k Rose Gold and I wear it everyday! The Opal measures 23mm 12mm. Love, love this ring...

I have given up on opal rings (sniff). I have broken too many.
Awhhh ( Sorry)...I love them too...and I am collecting them for my little one. Bella is 5 and, has a birthdayon October 12th. I am soo careful with them..and I used Mineral Oil to keep them hydrated. At least I think thats what is used. If you know of anything else to use for Opals let me know!
Great Ring! I have heard the older Antique opals are more durable.?
