This exact combination of transparent-to-semi-transparent fiery body color AND pronounced play-of-color is extraordinarily scarce in Mexican opals and highly coveted by collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eSet in an ornate Edwardian Revival \/ late Art Nouveau style mounting crafted entirely by hand, the opal is gracefully framed by four luminous natural seed pearls positioned at north, south, east, and west for perfect symmetry and balance. Every detail – from the fine milgrain edges to the pierced and engraved floral gallery and shoulders – reflects the work of a master goldsmith from the early post-war period (circa 1945-1955).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis is not a common “fire opal” without play-of-color – this is the far rarer “Precious” variant that Mexican miners themselves traditionally called Fire Opal long before the 1970s redefinition. A statement piece with breathtaking fire and old-world artistry that is virtually impossible to duplicate today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRef:23708\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eItem Detail Summary\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMetal\/Purity:\u003c\/b\u003e 14k yellow gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSetting:\u003c\/b\u003e  Bezel, prong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGemstone:\u003c\/b\u003e Mexican Precious Fire Opal, pearl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGemstone Cut:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Oval, round\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGemstone Measurement:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Opal - 7.5mm x 5.7mm; pearls - seed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFace\/Presence:  \u003c\/strong\u003e17mm x 12mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRing Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTotal Weight: \u003c\/b\u003e4.8 grams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aloha Estate Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45383153975492,"sku":"23708","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1179\/8980\/files\/708_230302-deco-prec-fire-opal-ring16.jpg?v=1763050303","url":"https:\/\/alohaestatejewelry.com\/products\/period-14k-art-deco-authentic-precious-mexican-fire-opal-ring","provider":"Aloha Estate Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
