Designing a black opal ring is not a bland work but an art that needs lots of skills and creativity to come up with the best design. Start with your choice of a fine quality black opal which is defined by the dark black body colour and vigorous fiery spectacle. Before making the final decision, the clarity, color saturation, and pattern on the opal are going to impact this ring and its value the most. After deciding on the best opal to use, think of the design of the ring. Choose designs that will complement the opal, which include the bezel or prong settings since these will protect the stone and at the same times expose it to light. When contouring the opal, utilize fine-grit sand paper, as well as higher polish compounding agents to get the best smooth high-gloss finish to the stone without affecting the shape. The same amount of consideration must be paid to the choice of the metal for the band as well. For black opal to stand out and the full brightness of the stone to bust through, platinum or white gold is used to pair well with the black opal. Also, see that the ring to be has been designed in a way that is strong enough for every day use and yet looks good. Adding engraves for instance or adding more melee stones could at times make the piece more special. Thus, applying the following special tips, one can produce an impressive black opal ring that will reflect the master’s individual vision and ideas.
