opal plate ring

This opal plate ring has a flat design with 1/4 of the ring covered in synthetic opal. The contrast between the smooth metal texture and the opal that emits rainbow colors makes this a unique ring, even though it is flat.

Opal has a unique rainbow-like shine called play-of-color. Synthetic opal has the same composition and structure as natural opal, but is extremely durable and beautiful.

The difference between natural and synthetic opals

Natural Opal – A Unique Natural Beauty

• A rare and valuable gemstone created by nature over millions of years.
• It is only mined in limited locations such as Australia and Ethiopia.
• Because it contains moisture, it is vulnerable to drying and sudden changes in temperature, so care must be taken when handling it.
• Each piece has its own unique expression, exuding a charm that makes them unlike any other in the world.

Synthetic Opal – Evolved Luxury

• It has the same composition and structure as natural opal, but pursues the utmost in durability and beauty.
• The vivid play of colors, which changes depending on the angle of the light, spreads evenly, resulting in a more impressive glow.
• Because it does not contain moisture, there is no need to worry about cracks due to drying, and it will retain its beauty for a long time.
• The random patterns of natural stone and the intricate artificial cutting techniques combine to create a perfect balance.
