This magical ring features a trio of incredible opals, which shimmer and glow with a mesmerizing play of colour. Surrounding the opals are eight vibrant rubies which add a rich and luxurious dimension to the ring's overall design. The contrast between the opals and rubies creates a striking visual effect that draws the eye and captures the imagination.
There are 0.33ct of opals and 0.20ct of rubies in total.
This ring is fully hallmarked by the Assay Office of Birmingham for 18ct gold in 1911, the year of George V's coronation.
The ring is in good condition with light marks commensurate with age.
