The story of today's opal engagement ring recall

 Opal Jewelry is famous for engagement rings because it has the ability to make colors appear and disappear, and because it was known in ancient times to have magical properties. The Greeks considered her prophetic. According to legend, the Roman senator Nonius chose to go into exile rather than give his opal ring to Mark Anthony, who wanted the ring to be a gift to Cleopatra.

In the 18th century, an opal necklace was considered to bring bad luck. It started when the Spanish king Alfonso XII. he gave an opal ring to her wife, who later died. The ring was passed on to family members who had also died, including the king himself. Some say it was due to a cholera epidemic, while others attribute the mysterious deaths to bad luck coming from the opal.

Opal is known for its exotic and also exciting colors. It is said that no two opals are alike in color. Although modern times have moved away from the superstitious belief, there are still those who choose to stick with such superstition, while most have already considered the opal to be a benefactor of wealth.

In an effort to move away from traditional diamond rings, opal is now being considered by many couples as engagement rings. Opals are soft, which requires them to have a hard setting to provide protection and allow them to show their inner fire. Bezel settings, pronged settings, and laid settings, the bezel being the most common, are the most popular settings that are made for opal engagement rings.

Black and white opals are known for their amazing display of colors. It's the bold fire within and bold color plays that make the theme an even better choice for someone than against a traditional diamond engagement ring. However, because opals are softer compared to diamonds, these stones require more care from the wearer to avoid chipping or scratching them. Only clean water should be used for cleaning.

An opal ring is the perfect engagement ring if you are looking for something that is antique and magical in its look. Fire white opal and Australian black opal are just some of the popular choices for opal engagement rings.
