Out of the dirt and dust of the Australian Outback we have The Melena Ring, a reminder of the colour and the beauty that can be found in the harshest of surroundings. Her 18 carat gold bridge setting frames bold, colourful opals that flash red, green and blue, and a finishing flourish of sparkling diamonds. The Melena Ring Gem Details The solid oval Australian opals display abundant flashes of orange, green and blue play of colour. the centre opal measures approximately 8.8x6.0 millimetres, and the two side opal measure approximately 6.5x4.7 millimetres. The centre opal has very slight surface wear that is hardly visible. The six old cut diamonds are estimated to total 0.28 carats with G colour and SI to P1 colour grades.
