One-off Opal Sterling Silver Dewdrop Ring - Adjustable Sizes N-P

£107.00
Size: N-P

Our One-off Opal Dewdrop Ring is perfect for everyday wear or special occasions.

At Silver Scene we love to be different and that's why we have created our 'One-off' range, unique pieces of jewellery for unique people.

This ring features a free form, Australian Opal Doublet in a Sterling Silver setting. Open at the front, this ring wraps elegantly around the finger creating a contemporary and comfortable design, perfect for everyday wear.

A slightly adjustable band means that this ring can be worn in a small range of sizes, giving you peace of mind when buying as a gift. Just gently squeeze to make smaller, or gently stretch to make larger. Once you have found the correct size, keep the ring at that size as constant adjusting will weaken and distort the shape of the band. 

Opal is a very hard stone to photograph, the pictures do not do it justice.

Opal is the birthstone for October making this ring an ideal gift for October birthdays or for women with a love for the colour blue.

A unique piece of jewellery, this gorgeous opal ring is a one-of-a-kind piece, only one ring has been made especially for you and, just like you, there are no other rings quite like this one. 

Perfect as a gift for a loved one or a treat for yourself.

This piece has been ethically designed and made by hand by Silver Scene Ltd in our workshops in Bali, Indonesia. It is an exclusive Silver Scene design and limited to one piece only.

About the stone

Opal is the birthstone for October.

Australia produces 95% of the worlds opals. It is not known exactly how opal is formed, but many believe it is formed when water from rain seeps down into crevasses in the rock. Once the water evaporates, the silica that is left behind dries out and hardens into precious opal.

The ancient Greeks believed that opals were formed from the tears of joy wept by Zeus when he defeated the titans, and that the opal bestowed prophetic powers.

Most civilizations see opal as a lucky stone. In the Middle Ages, it was considered that it could provide great luck as it carried all the virtues of each gemstone whose colour was represented in the opal.  Following the publication of Sir Walter Scott’s ‘Anne of Geierstein’ in 1829, opal acquired a less popular reputation. In Scott’s novel, the Baroness of Arnheim wears an opal talisman with supernatural powers. When a drop of holy water falls on the talisman, the opal turns into a colourless stone and the Baroness dies soon after. Due to the popularity of this novel, people began to associate opals with bad luck and death and within a year of the novel being published, the sale of opals in Europe had dropped by 50%.

Opals have always been associated with love and passion, it is a seductive stone that intensifies emotions and releases inhibitions. It is believed to stimulate originality and creativity. Wearing opal is said to bring loyalty, faithfulness and spontaneity.
