18ct Yellow Gold, Diamond & Black Opal Ring

18ct Yellow Gold, Diamond & Black Opal Ring: This extraordinary dress ring centres on a free-form black opal alive with colour. While the gem displays a dominant vivid green, stunning flashes of blue dance across its surface as the light shifts, creating a mesmerising play-of-colour unique to high-quality opals. The stone’s natural irregular, organic shape—a hallmark of free-form opals—gives the piece a distinctive character and ultimately determines the ring’s final silhouette. Encircling the opal is a delicate halo of small round brilliant-cut diamonds, each one carefully grain-set and graduated in size to follow the contours of the gem. Their bright shimmer provides a beautiful contrast to the opal’s deep, moody colours. The open-backed setting allows the rich black or dark-toned base of the opal to remain visible, enhancing both its depth and vibrancy. A truly one-of-a-kind creation, shaped by nature and refined by craftsmanship.
