Vintage 14ct Yellow Gold Opal Triplet ‘Heart’ Ring Exquisite in its proportions thisOpal triplets get such a bad rap and we honestly have no idea why? They are certainly less expensive than a solid Opal as they contain a thin sliver of natural Opal topped with a clear plastic or glass and backed with a black potch or ironstone. However you get so much bang for your buck and this example is no exception! The colours this one exhibits are stunning. Vibrant rich and bright reds, blues, greens and yellows all swimming beneath the surface
