About the Piece This solid 18k gold ring features an oval shaped opal gemstone from Lightning Ridge Australia with a full gold backing and cracked egg bezel setting.

About the Artist Designed in her workshop amid the historic countryside of New York's Hudson Valley, Annette Ferdinandsen's jewelry reflects the inherent grace of the flora and fauna surrounding her. Each piece is handcrafted in her studio, which is filled with natural curiosities that inspire her- from coral branches to exotic seashells to bouquets of feathers and colorful flowers.
