Navajo Handmade Blue Opal Ring • 925 Silver • Native American Jewelry
925 sterling silver statement ring with a rectangle-faced design and blue opal stone inlay. The face of this ring measures approximately 9/16 inch tall by 1/2 inch wide. It is available in sizes 8, 9, 10, 11, & 12. Opal is known for its unique display of flashing rainbow colors called play-of-color. Play-of-color occurs in precious opal because it’s made up of sub-microscopic spheres stacked in a grid-like pattern. As the lightwaves travel between the spheres, the waves diffract or bend. As they bend, they break up into the colors of the rainbow, called spectral colors.
