Victorian Opal Cluster Ring

Vintage Victorian ring made in 18k yellow gold and centered with an approximately .75 carat cabochon opal. Accented with old mine diamonds weighing approximately .40 carats total. Circa 1890. Nothing beats a beautiful opal set with a halo of diamonds! The band is delicate and thin making this ring very comfortable and light on the finger.  Diamond and gold mining has caused devastation in areas such as Africa, wreaking havoc on delicate ecosystems and communities. Choosing to go vintage, you are eliminating the need for more mining and lessening the demand for new diamonds.
