14K Yellow Gold Australian Lightning Ridge Crystal Opal Ring. Large 1/2"--K1L07J

Welcome to Sea Green Mermaid!

For sale is a 14k yellow gold ring with an Australian crystal opal.  This opal was mined in the Lightning Ridge fields of New South Wales.  This type of opal is often called a crystal or jelly opal because of its translucence.  This opal is a domed oval, and it is completely translucent.  The opal flashes with colorful fire even in normal light.  However, when you move it in the sunlight this opal becomes quite dramatic. It displays lightning bolts of opalescent fire, with lots of cherry red, peacock blue, and purple, as well as neon green, orange and yellow.  This is a colorful opal, and it is well-displayed in this yellow gold setting.  The setting is bypass style, with two curved leaves of gold that bend around the opal.  The setting is designed to reflect light back into the opal, and the setting itself displays rainbows of reflected color.  This is truly a magical opal ring that will delight the opal lover every time you wear it.

The item shows normal wear for a pre-owned piece (light scratches, dings, dents and scuff marks.)   

**It appears that the ring has been re-sized at some point, and there are visible solder marks on the back of the shank.  Please see photos.

Ring size: Just over 7
