Discover the enchanting allure of our reimagined Cleo Ring, featuring a mesmerizing triangular-shaped Australian opal from the Quilpie mine in Queensland. This extraordinary gem, with its milky white canvas, plays host to a spectacular light show of green, blue, and purple flashes, reminiscent of sweet icing flecked with sprinkles. 

This split-shank Cleo ring is crafted entirely from 14k yellow gold. The opal, personally selected from an Australian miner and cutter, is set within an elegant bezel that rims the enchanting stone.

Available in a stock size 7, we offer complimentary resizing to ensure your Cleo Ring fits perfectly. Simply select your desired size in the dropdown below. 

To preserve your opal's enchanting play of color, we recommend gentle care. Clean with mild detergent in warm water using a soft cloth.

Opal

Birthstone: October

Anniversary: 14th

Opals form when silica gel fills crevices in rock, and as the gel hardens, it creates their distinctive play of color through light diffraction—like capturing a rainbow in stone. Ancient Romans prized opals above all other gems, calling them "cupid paederos" meaning "child beautiful as love." Australia produces about 95% of the world's opals, though they're also found in Mexico, Brazil, and Ethiopia, each location producing stones with their own unique character and color play.

Ancient Greeks believed opals granted the power of prophecy and protection from disease, while Arabs thought they fell from heaven in flashes of lightning. Australian Aboriginal dreamtime stories tell of the Creator coming to Earth on a rainbow, with opals forming where his feet touched the ground. This magical gem's ever-changing colors make it perfect for pieces that celebrate individuality and the beauty of being truly one-of-a-kind.

Low-Profile

This ring sits close to your finger but does not have flat sides for traditional stacking. To wear this piece with other rings, you'll need a contoured band that curves around its shape or a custom-fitted ring.
