Arts & Crafts 9ct Gold & Black Opal Ring

197U
Written by Olly Gerrish

A neat looking 18ct gold ring that was made in the late Edwardian period circa 1910-1920.  It is in the Arts and Crafts style that was prevalent at the time.  It has been set with a lively black opal that displays deep flashes of red and blue predominantly with some vivid green.  Opals are fascinating stones as they contain around 7% water which gives them their luminosity.  They were imported from Australia in huge amounts around the turn of the twentieth century and were extremely fashionable and sought after stones. The opal is framed with a lacy gold design.  A pretty ring that can be worn daily.
