Hardly any other country has produced as many beautiful pieces of jewellery over the past three centuries as the United Kingdom. Through its numerous colonies scattered across the globe, the British had access to the rich gemstone mines of the Indian subcontinent beginning in the late 18th century. Later, diamonds from South Africa were added to the mix, and alongside rubies and sapphires, Australian opals also ranked among the old Empire’s favorite gemstones. Even today, these tiny wonders of nature remain more popular with English goldsmiths than almost any other gemstone. For example, in the exquisite ring we discovered in London, we find no fewer than five beautiful Australian full opals set in gold. These opals feature an intense play of colours that shimmer with every movement, constantly creating new flashes of colour. A fine piece of jewellery featuring very special opals, crafted in the long tradition of the goldsmiths of the British Empire.
