The Empress Opal Ring

Arabic legends says Opals fall from the sky on flashes of lightning and the Ancient Greeks called her mini-universes trapped in stone. She has been called Light of the World, Pandora herself and most notably The Empress of Stones. Opals have long been considered otherworldly and it is easy to see why when gazing into their depths. 

This stunning blue/green Australian Opal Ring was fine Silver electroformed and then plated over with 24k Bright Yellow Gold for a long-lasting finish. 

  • You are ordering this exact ring
  • There is only ONE
  • It is a size 8.5
  • Please Note: Electroformed pieces cannot be resized.

 

Since this is a raw stone, if you hit or it knocks on something there is the potential for the Opal to chip. This is not a manufacturing or craftsman flaw. It is the nature of raw Opals. If it happens, it because it is a raw stone it doesn’t usually affect the overall appearance of the ring or the longevity of the piece. Please be aware of this before purchasing. 

Cast Jewelry (Solid 14k Gold or Sterling Silver)

Our jewelry is heirloom quality and made with the best materials available.  When ordering a silver or gold piece, we include a polishing cloth with each order. We recommend cleaning with warm water and soap, allow it to dry, then polish with the cloth whenever you feel it needs a shine.  Most of our jewelry (Opals are the exception!) is specifically designed to be worn 24/7, but feel free to take it off whenever you want. I personally wear my rings to bed, in the shower and to wash dishes, but if you have questions about the stone in your ring please email and we can let you know more specific care instructions for your ring.

You can also take it to your local jeweler for cleaning if you don't want to do it yourself.

Electroformed and Plated Jewelry

WE NO LONGER SERVICE ELECTROFORMED JEWELRY

If you have purchased an electroformed piece and it needs to be re-plated, your local jeweler should be able to do this for you. Often jewelers will ask what materials the piece is made with. You can respond: It is an electroformed piece made with a core of Fine Silver and gemstones. If it was plated before (bare Fine Silver rings were not plated), it was originally plated with 14k Yellow Gold, 18k Rose Gold or Rhodium depending on your specific ring.

What to Expect from Long-Term Daily Wear

As with any piece you wear daily, you may notice scratching or scuffing on the stone or band. This will vary depending on what you do with your hands since no two of us live the same life. Anything beyond moderate scuffing or scratching is abnormal, so please reach out if you feel your ring has abnormal wear to determine if it qualifies for warranty repair.

If you don't see the answer to your question you can reach out to us here. If you are interested in a custom design, be sure to read through our custom design process carefully.

If we agree to an exchange, you will be given the return address and an RMA number which must be included with the package.  The item must be returned before credit is issued and must be in saleable condition. Buyers are responsible for return shipping costs. If the item is not returned in its original condition, the buyer is responsible for any loss in value.

Shipping speed and carrier is entirely dependent on what option you choose.  

Expedite Fee for Custom Piece Policy

Delayed/Missing Package Policy

For the most up-to-date tracking information, please refer to the tracking number provided in the shipping email. The Fox and Stone is not responsible for any delays once the package has been transferred to the postal carrier. 

We highly recommend purchasing shipping insurance for total value of your order. We are happy to submit an insurance claim for any missing or damaged packages, however if insufficient or no insurance was purchased The Fox and Stone is not responsible for the lost value.

The Fox and Stone is not responsible (i.e. we will not issue a refund/replace) for any lost, missing, delayed or damaged packages, but we will submit an insurance claim where it is legal to do so. If you open a chargeback, you forfeit all rights to your package.

Most counties, if not all of them, will charge Customs and/or import taxes on international shipments.  Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply. We are not responsible for delays due to holds placed by your Customs Office.  Please check with your local Customs Office for more information.
