Art Deco romance
Where our other opal rings lean woodland or vintage-soft, Victoria leans Gatsby. Its detailing recalls the clean geometry and symmetry of the Art Deco era — a style built for statement-making without ever tipping into fuss. The slim 1.6 mm band keeps the look refined and lets the opal take center stage. It is a heirloom-style piece for anyone who loves antique glamour but wants a gemstone with genuine movement and color. Discover the rest of our opal engagement rings to compare silhouettes.
The natural Australian opal
At the heart sits a genuine natural Australian opal, cut as an oval cabochon so its color play rolls across the surface as the light moves. Expect flashes of blue, green and warm fire dancing over a luminous base — the mesmerizing effect that has made opal a collector’s favorite for centuries. Because it is a natural stone, every opal is unique; yours will share the character shown in our photos with its own individual play of color. To learn how to read and appreciate an opal’s fire, our opal engagement ring guide walks through everything worth knowing.
Bright simulated diamond accents
To echo the sparkle of the Deco era, the setting is dressed with simulated diamonds (CZ) that throw off crisp white light around the opal. They add that classic engagement-ring shimmer at an accessible price and make the opal’s colors glow all the warmer by contrast. Want lab-grown diamond or moissanite accents instead? Just ask — we can tailor most designs to your preference.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
Victoria is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium, the same bright metal used on fine white gold. The finish delivers a mirror-white luster and a protective layer that helps resist tarnish and scratches, keeping the ring looking freshly polished. It is nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so it stays comfortable even on sensitive skin. Pair it with a coordinating band from our opal wedding bands for a complete bridal stack.
What opal symbolizes
Opal, the October birthstone, has long stood for creativity, passion and love — a fitting emblem for a proposal, anniversary or milestone birthday. In antiquity it was prized above almost every other gem as a talisman of inspiration and hope.

Sizing & care
Select your size at checkout. If the fit is not quite right, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. Opal is a softer, water-sensitive gem, so remove the ring before showering, swimming, cleaning or applying lotions, and store it in the velvet box between wears. A soft dry cloth brings back the shine. Treated gently, Victoria will keep its Deco glamour for a lifetime. Curious how opal compares with other fiery gems? Our fire opal engagement ring guide is a great next read.
Frequently asked questions
Is the opal a natural stone?
Yes. Victoria features a genuine natural Australian opal, cut as an oval cabochon. It is never dyed or reconstituted, so its play-of-color is entirely its own.
What makes the design Art Deco?
The setting draws on the clean geometry and symmetry of the 1920s Art Deco era, giving the ring an antique, Gatsby-era glamour while keeping the opal firmly in the spotlight.
Will every opal look the same?
No, and that is the beauty of it. Each natural opal has a unique pattern of fire, so yours will share the color character in our photos while being one of a kind.
What are the sparkling accents?
Simulated diamonds (cubic zirconia) set around the opal for crisp white sparkle. If you prefer lab-grown diamond or moissanite accents, contact us and we can customize the ring.
What metal is used?
Solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish. It is nickel-free and hypoallergenic, making it comfortable for sensitive skin.
What does the rhodium finish add?
Rhodium is the precious metal used to finish fine white gold. It gives the silver a bright, mirror-white luster and a protective layer that helps the ring resist tarnish and scratches.
How large is the opal?
The oval cabochon measures roughly 7.0 mm by 5.0 mm, about 0.75 carat, set on a delicate 1.6 mm band that keeps the design elegant.
Is it durable enough for everyday wear?
Opal sits around 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, so it is best worn thoughtfully. Avoid knocks and prolonged water exposure and it will stay radiant for years.
Can I wear it as an engagement or promise ring?
Yes. Its heirloom-style look makes it a striking engagement ring, promise ring or October birthstone gift, and it pairs beautifully with a matching opal wedding band.
How do I keep it looking its best?
Remove it before water, chemicals and rough activity, buff gently with a soft dry cloth, and store it in the velvet box. This keeps both the opal and rhodium finish luminous.
What size should I choose?
Order your usual ring size at checkout. If you are unsure or between sizes, reach out for guidance. Resizing is available and starts from a modest fee.
Are the stones ethically sourced?
Yes. All of our stones are ethically sourced and conflict-free, so you can wear Victoria with complete peace of mind.
Does it come gift-ready?
