Crystal Opal in HoW

[MakingTheGrade]

3ct Crystal opal from australia set in rose gold and sterling from Hearts of Water. BY far my favorite of the 3 new rings from sally. You cannot get a bad photo of this gorgeous, glowing blue wonder!

..if you look closely in the last picture, you can see the blackened sterling under the opal which is actually very transparent

I sort of wish I had done yellow gold on this one though, the rose gold blends into my skin

No I got it awhile back form a PS recommended seller. Can't remember who though. I want to say maybe DJ rare gems..

Beautiful!

Wish I could jump in a lake that color! It's so hot here in SE Texas!

I really wish I had taken photos of the crystal Unset. You can't tell from these photos how crazy transparent the opal is. In person you can see through it like water at times which makes the glowing colors seem more magical and vibrant.

It was similar to this opal, very flat and see through.

Very pretty. I think the rose gold is lovely with the opal and it makes the opal pop against your skin so while I think the opal would also look beautiful in yellow gold I love the way it looks in rose gold too.

As I already commented in your SMTB thrread: you have 3 amazing rings made by Sally What a treat to receive 3 rings!!!
Your chrystal opal ring is my personal favourite as it is such a special stone. What an amazing colour and glow. It looks stunning on you.

this was the first time I ordered a bunch of things at once from her but it worked out well because bulk shipping her the stones is probably less stressful than doing it multiple times!

Haha. My collection is definitely dominated by hearts of water settings.

Very nice, a substantial beauty.

 

[MakingTheGrade]

Yeah I had actually gotten these rings made because I was craving more size and impact. This rain is definitely enough finger coverage!!
