Stunning lab created opal ring with a purple amethyst center stone set in sterling silver. This unique ring is inlaid with 3 pieces of multicolor lab created opal on each side of the ring. The lab created opal in this ring fires red, orange and yellow with a purple base color and hints of blue and green. The .75 carat round amethyst is set almost flush with the silver and the deep purple color looks great with the lab created opal. I took special care to cut the lab created opal to mimic the random pattern in natural Australian opal and maximize the color flashes. The ring is 6.2mm wide at the top and tapers slightly down to 4mm at the bottom. It is shown in a size 7 1/2 for scale. This ring would also make a great wedding ring or engagement ring. If you are interested in a 2 ring bridal set, I can make a matching band. Special orders usually take 4 to 6 weeks to complete so please schedule your order to allow us plenty of time to create your ring and ship it to you.
The lab created opal in this woman's opal ring is a top quality synthetic opal grown under laboratory conditions. The manmade opal's chemical composition is the same as natural opal with the exception of water content. Australian opal contains about 4% water and lab created opal contains no water. Instead, the water is replaced with resin. The resin gives the synthetic opal more durability and helps to resist cracking. Laboratory grown opal gives you all the fire and colors of top grade natural opal at a much more affordable price with increased durability.
*If purchasing for a wedding/engagement ring, it is recommended that you upgrade to Continuum sterling silver for added durability and tarnish resistance.

Finger Size (Please Read!)
It is very important that you give us your correct size when ordering as it is difficult to adjust the size without using a laser welder and risking damage to the ring. The paper finger sizers you might find on the internet and print out are not accurate. We have experimented and found that they vary from 1/4 to 3/4 of a size in error. Please visit a local jeweler, or two, and get your finger sized properly. If possible get sized with a band similar in width to the ring you are purchasing. A wide band will fit differently than a narrow one. We depend on you, the customer, to provide us with the correct size so please do not estimate or guess. Special order and made to order rings are NOT RETURNABLE.
