Antique Victorian Opal Diamond Ring Enamel 18k Yellow Gold 5.5 Cocktail Jewelry
About the Item
Stylish antique Victorian opal & diamond ring (circa 1880s to 1900s) crafted in 18 karat yellow gold.
Cabochon cut opal measure from 2mm to 7mm angel skin coral measures 12mm x 5.5mm. Old mine and rose cut diamonds are estimated at approx. 0.04 to 0.05 carats. The total diamond weight is estimated at 1.25 carats (estimated at L-M color and SI2-I2 clarity). The opals are in good condition and free of cracks or chips.
The delightful ring is a feast for the eyes! With a row of colorful opals to the center & bordering black enamel, the old mine cut diamonds offer a beautiful shimmer with every movement of the ring. The elongated cocktail ring has a low profile and sits flat and comfortably on the hand (rises 3.5mm or 0.13 inches). 7 of the diamonds have been replaced over the years (rose cuts) with one diamond recessed into the mount. Due to the age of the ring, we decided not to replace the diamond and has been left in tact within the mount. The ring has also been resized and re-shanked (in 14k gold).
The ring is in good condition. We have not cleaned it in order to preserve the patina and collector value.

About Antique Rings:
The artistry of making antique rings reflects the era’s cultural influences. Most antique rings were created by skilled artisans who meticulously handcrafted each piece. This level of craftsmanship allowed for intricate designs that were often time-consuming to produce. This includes filigree work, hand-chasing, granulation (tiny metal bead-work), and hand-piercing to create delicate openwork patterns.
The emphasis on hand-made production is a hallmark of the era’s jewels. Antique rings were typically made from both gold and silver. The jewelers noticed that diamonds look whiter when set in white metal and not in yellow. The white gold was not invented back then yet and platinum was too hard for jewelry tools...

Victor Mayer Cocktail Opal White Enamel Ring 18k Yellow Gold/White gold Diamonds
VICTOR MAYER is a fine jewelry house known for its sophisticated craftsmanship. Since 1989, the company has been closely associated with the Fabergé name as a workmaster. The company was founded by Victor Mayer in Pforzheim, Germany in 1890 and is managed by his great-grandson Dr. Marcus Oliver Mohr.
The inimitably luminous colors are literally created "in the fire": layer after layer of enamel is carefully fired at 800 degrees. During guilloching, the finest wave patterns are engraved on gold, creating a unique depth effect. The rare techniques have been passed down from generation to generation since the company's founding.
With a feeling for style, timeless classics are created. The company is working with gold, gemstones as well as diamonds.
