Fairy Opal

$150.00

Australian Fairy Opal Ring – Size 7

Solid 925 Sterling Silver

There is something unmistakably gentle about fairy opal.

Unlike the dramatic flash of black opal, fairy opal glows from within — soft, shifting tones of pastel blue, silver, blush pink, and hints of sea-green moving quietly beneath the surface. It doesn’t demand attention. It rewards it.

This Australian fairy opal formed over millions of years as silica-rich waters moved through ancient sedimentary layers, filling microscopic cavities and hardening into a lattice of perfectly arranged silica spheres. Those spheres diffract light, creating opal’s signature play-of-color — a natural optical phenomenon, not pigment.

Set in solid 925 sterling silver, this ring offers a clean, balanced setting that allows the stone’s luminosity to remain the focus. The cool tone of sterling silver pairs beautifully with the opal’s subtle internal glow, making it both refined and effortless for everyday wear.

Mined in Australia — the world’s most historic opal-producing region — this stone carries the geology of ancient inland seas. During the Cretaceous period, much of central Australia was underwater. As those seas receded, silica deposits concentrated within sedimentary rock, eventually forming the opal fields still worked today in places like Coober Pedy and Lightning Ridge.

Miners in these regions often dig by hand in underground shafts to escape desert heat that can exceed 110°F — rugged landscapes producing remarkably delicate beauty.

Size: 7

Metal: Solid 925 Sterling Silver

Origin: Australia

No two fairy opals are ever identical. The internal structure of silica spheres creates a completely unique pattern in every stone — a quiet signature from the earth itself.

This ring is not loud.

It’s luminous.

It feels like light resting on your hand.
