Low Profile Victorian Bezel Set Opal Engagement Ring

This chunky yellow gold ring is set with a dazzlingly colorful opal. While this ring would look at home in a designer's line today, it was made in the UK over 100 years ago- proof that some designs never go out of style! The ring, crafted in heavy 9k yellow gold, features a bezel-set Australian crystal opal at its center. This opal commands attention, with a mix of red, green, gold, and blue shimmering from every angle. The opal is bezel set, gypsy-style, into the gold setting, with a tapered shank that winds around the finger. The gold exhibits slight signs of wear under magnification, consistent with its age, but these scuffs and bubbles are not visible and do not affect the ring's durability. Able to be worn on any finger, this timeless piece is as versatile as it is striking. 

Details: antique 9k yellow gold low-profile ring set with 1.75ct oval high dome cabochon opal (Australia), British circa 1910.
