Opal engagement rings

Opal engagement rings! It’s a BIG decision because this ring is not just for a special occasion but captures a memory for the rest of your life,

The wearing of rings for engagement and other reasons goes back a long way. See: History of the wearing of rings

Some of the earliest examples of dress rings among headdresses and other ancient jewelry can be seen today in museums such as the one at the University of Pennsylvania where jewelry from the ancient city of Ur south of Baghdad, Iraq was salvaged after archaeological digs in the 1920 ’s…

What features of opal would make it so desirable as an engagement ring?

Godt, there are so many gorgeous gemstones featured in rings. The most expensive usually being diamonds if they are of high quality but sapphires, rubiner, smaragder, and other colored stones often compete with them in price and appeal.

The thing that makes opals stand out from all of them is the fact that they have this amazing knack of attracting the human eye almost as if they are alive because they often change from one color to another as they are rotated even slightly.

Why does an Opal engagement ring feature the stone more than other types of jewelry?

The obvious reason is that the hand moves more than (for eksempel) the neck, so the stone catches light coming from many different directions and the colors role from one to another.

Dette skyldes, at overfladen af ​​opalen består af små kugler, der griber farven fra spektret og ændrer den til forskellige farver. Derfor kan en opalring dybest set være rød, men når den vendte sig kan henvende sig til greener, gule, og blues, Afhængig af størrelsen på de mikroskopiske kugler.

Opal engagement rings – helt unik i ædelstenenes verden

Teknisk set er dette korrekt med den ædelsten, du har på dig, men det må siges, at selvom ingen to diamanter er identiske, er forskellen med opal, at de tydeligvis er forskellige, Mens den hvide af diamanten, safirens blå, eller den grønne af en smaragd kan se stort set ud det samme.

Opaler kaldes ofte 'Personlighedstenen’ because you can get them in just about any color and they can match a persons preference whether it is green like emerald, blue like sapphire, red like a ruby, yellow like yellow sapphire, deep red like garnet, and other varieties.

And if you want the presence of a diamond, you can always add a couple of small diamonds which are not so expensive. (see an example of the black opal ring with diamonds on this page.

En særlig advarsel Just about every day I get folks from around the world really upset about a ring they have purchased from well-meaning jewelers with an opal that has either lost its color or turned an ugly brown. These stones come from countries where the climate is too wet.

The opal is called ‘hydrophane’ and is very porous and apart from being prone to cracking, it absorbs water which takes away the color. Sometimes the color can be restored after drying out but it’s too risky. Our suggestion is to only buy Australian opals because of the dry climate where they are found. If you want help in making a decision, Peter is always willing to assist. Der er ingen købsforpligtelse.
