Antique, Edwardian ring. Platinum set with a cushion cut Mexican fire opal, surrounded by a ring of diamonds. Made during the first decade of the 20th century - 1900 - 1910. Measurements and sizes: Just under a US size 7. Weighs 2.3grams. Just under a half carat of diamonds. Exquisitely made ring: a flower formed by a ring of diamonds - European cut, S11 in a filigree platinum setting. The diamonds enclose a marvellous cushion cut fire opal of an amazing shade of orange. This ring was my personal favourate for many years and taught me to truly appreciate the colour orange. This stone is a good indication of why the fire opal is the national stone of Mexico. Workmanship is fabulous - from the tight setting of the diamonds, to the creamy cutting of the opal and the openwork supporting ''scales'' at the back. Hallmarked PLAT 100. Good condition.
