Description: Here is a striking and attention grabbing 14 karat white gold ladies halo design ring featuring a 2.92 carat genuine, natural Ethiopian opal surrounded by 18 natural diamonds. The center opal has an orangey, "jelly" base (typical of opals from Ethiopia) with very good play-of-color flashes in predominantly greenish and reddish hues; absolutely gorgeous! Ethiopian opals are artisanally mined by individual small-scale miners. This opal is cut in an oval cabochon shape measuring approximately 14.1 x 10.6 mm. This is a really well-cut gem and not overly deep, so the opal looks larger than its actual weight. Opal is an October birthstone, but this gemstone is a joy to own and wear regardless of your birth month! The 18 round, full brilliant cut natural diamonds have a combined actual weight of 1.07 carats. These diamonds have an average color graded at I/J color and SI-3 (split SI-2 / I-1) average clarity grade with good overall cut; that's nearly colorless and borderline eye clean. The diamonds and the opal are all 100% genuine, natural, untreated, and unenhanced. The mounting is by the well-respected New York manufacturer Overnight Mountings, style number 80475-14x10. It is done in solid 14 karat white gold and is finger size 6.75 but easily sizable by any competent jeweler. You can see a professional rendering of the ring mounting (and suggested retail pricing) at overnightmountings dot com and searching the style number. The ring weighs a very substantial 7.7 grams. This ring is solid gold and unworn; don't be duped into buying a cheap gold-plated ring or someone else's worn-out castoff! This ring was originally priced at $3,595 in our brick and mortar fine jewelry store that closed in 2020. If you go to the manufacturer's website, you'll see that as we write this, the suggested retail price for the MOUNTING ALONE without any gems is more than $2,045! The mounting with side diamonds comparable to these and no center gemstone has an MSRP of more than $4,275 online right now! We are offering the entire ring including the nearly 3 carat Ethiopian opal and over a carat total weight of diamonds for a closeout, below current wholesale price, buy it now price of just $1,389.99 and we are including FREE insured priority shipping! We only have one piece of this description, so it is first come, first served. We are including a nice little gift box as shown in the images that has a nifty integrated magnetic bow. Buy the mounting alone at more than 30% off its suggested retail price and get the stunning, nearly 3 carat, natural Ethiopian opal, over a carat total weight of nice quality genuine diamonds, the labor to set them, the box, and the insured shipping to your door all for free! This is below a current wholesale price on this magnificent ring! Retail jewelers and other resellers welcome! We are also including a certificate of appraisal at full retail value to assist you in getting adequate insurance coverage. The photo here is redacted due to contractual reasons, but your original certificate will be fully signed by our Master Graduate Gemologist Appraiser. Please look over the images and information carefully. We are listing this piece with a return privilege in case we have not described something properly, but we really don't want it back since we are now retired and are offering it at a closeout price. Honestly...please don't ask to return it for some reason already detailed or shown in this very complete listing! But buy with confidence knowing that we have had 100% positive feedback since joining eBay in 2004 and because our store stocked well-made, quality-inspected jewelry designed for years of problem-free wear. Thanks for looking!
