Black opal and cubic zirconia ring

Exclusivity & Design: A hand-crafted ring in rhodium-plated 925 silver. Size 22. The centerpiece is a commanding 12×8 mm teardrop Australian black opal — its surface alive with the play-of-color phenomenon unique to opal. The sides of the band are adorned with two delicate bow-shaped details set with small, brilliant translucent cubic zirconia stones. An elegant, feminine piece that commands attention.

Aesthetic Details: The play-of-color in black opal — caused by light refracting through cristobalite microspheres against a dark body tone — is the most vivid expression of this phenomenon in the opal world. Against its deep background, the spectral flashes of green, blue, red, and gold appear with an intensity that lighter opals cannot match. The CZ bow details on the band add a refined feminine elegance that frames the stone's drama perfectly.

Guarantee & Shipping: Handmade in Córdoba, Argentina by certified goldsmith Gonzalo Martínez. Every piece comes with a lifetime stone-setting adjustment guarantee. Payment via PayPal. Ships worldwide via DHL with complimentary shipping on every order.

About Black Opal: Black opal from Australia is the rarest and most valuable opal variety in the world, prized for the exceptional contrast between its dark body tone and vivid play-of-color. In Greek mythology, opal was born from Zeus's tears of joy after his victory over the Titans. In ancient India it was venerated as the goddess of the rainbow solidified into stone. Energetically, opal brings earthly joy, amplifies desire and passion, and heightens emotional sensitivity. Origin: Australia. Zodiac: Gemini.
