With its ethereal, earthy elegance, this one-of-a-kind Australian opal ring by Variance Objects has been hand-wrought in the designer's Santa Cruz studio. The nugget of shimmering, iridescent opal is asymmetrically cut with smooth, angular facets and jagged edges. It is held in place by a sculptural setting of 14K rose, white and yellow gold and attaches to the oxidized sterling silver band. Its modern, style-defining allure makes it a stunning addition to any casual, curated jewelry collection.
