Boulder Opal Ring with Pink Sapphire & Spinel

Our handmade 18k yellow gold boulder-opal ring celebrates the natural beauty of this fascinating gemstone: a tear-shaped specimen with glowing pink and lime in a field of smoky purple, blue and peach. The accents of opalescent pink sapphire and pink spinel play to the sparks of bright color.

Organic minimalism with a brutalist vibe in the gracefully undulating branch band with hand-hammered texture that emphasizes the opal's slightly rustic nature. It's designed to stand on its own as a unique statement, but it also mixes well with other pieces adding texture to your daily ring stack.

Details: Measuring approximately 5/16" north to south at the face, the shank varies slightly in width in the 2-3 mm range all around. Marked for 18k inside the band. We are committed to renewing resources and only use recycled gold for our handmade pieces.

Size: Currently size 7, and resizable at least three full sizes without issue. Please message us before purchase if you are interested in the details of our sizing service.

History: Boulder opal was first discovered in Western Queensland, Australia in 1870; Australian Aboriginal legend describes opal as evidence of The Creator's visit to earth to council mankind, divine footsteps that brought the rock to life with energy, light and color. The intensely colored opal vein forms in ironstone boulders, and usually when cut some of this host stone is included as a rich contrast to the magical iridescence of the gem. It's one of the most valuable forms of opal: a fascinating mix of primitive and refined.
