Like seriously, look at her. LOOK AT HER!!!!

I was going to hold off getting another ring because my emerald door knocker just got finished, but when I saw this ring I knew I had to have her.
I've been distracted at work because I keep staring at the gorgeous flashes of color. She needs a name! What should I name her?

Specs:
3.43 ct. Australian Jelly Opal
.80 diamond melee (baguettes and rounds)
900 Platinum ballerina setting
size 4


(John Wick/Keanu Barbie for scale. LOL)

I purchased this magnificent piece from Red Ginger Jewelry Co. here in Austin, TX. Melissa, the store owner was a dream to work with and her customer support is above and beyond. We had so much fun talking about jewelry.

Literally AMAZING!! :-o

Oh my goodness!! :kiss2: She literally looks like a mesmerising jellyfish! Almost looks squishy like a bag of water!

Yes. This is just stunning.

Exactly! It's like I wanna bit down on her because she looks chewy and squishy. I wish I could capture the light play accurately. She truly is mesmerizing. Maybe I should name her Ms. JellyFish.

Thank you, everyone! The more I look at her, the more I love her....and I've found a name already that has stuck "Athena" :)

Here's a photo of Athena and Esme hanging out together:

Oh Lordy she is lovely! I've never see a jelly opal before, how beautiful and unique!

She is queen of the jelly fish, so how about Jelly Queen? She also reminds me of an elegant ballerina, something of a diva, so what about Anna Pavlova? (or some other famous ballerina.)

This will be so much fun to wear. A true conversation piece!
