Oh my goodness, Missy, this opal is literally the contents of my DREAMS!! I have always wanted a big dobbing black opal framed in diamonds! You are such a lucky lady! Do you have hand shots? It looks fairly huge

Here's my 4 diamond RG Love.
(It's the only piece of jewelry I always wear -- running, swimming, whatever.)
PS - love the opal!

Hi Alex, thanks. I love this ring too. It is much more beautiful in real life. It is also way more difficult to get good pics of this than my diamonds. The colors just never show up in pics as vibrant, brilliant and fiery as they truly are. She's a fireball with tons of red shooting from her and lots of other colors in the mix. The opal was mined from Lightning ridge a long time ago and my dad bought the ring from Cartier in 1972 and gave it to my mom who gave it to me around 30 years later. I had to have it resized at Cartier because she has tiny fingers and I don't. They made me produce all the documentation from 1972 before they resized it (and if my memory serves me correctly it was over $450 to resize). I didn't want to have it resized anywhere else because opals are so fragile and I felt it was too risky.
Here are some hand shots as per your request...sorry the pics are less than desirable. Hope you get the opal of your dreams too!

Yes- I avoid wearing leather as much as possible so I'll always have a metal bracelet. It was a gift to commemorate my kids (one through the miracle of adoption and the other through the miracle of birth), so their names and birthdays are engraved on the back.
