DESCRIPTION:
Excellent craftsmanship is shown throughout this amazing ring! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Amos Begay, out of genuine sterling silver and a man made Pink Opal stone. The stone is gently set in a hand cut bezel setting while silver designs add style to the ring for a phenomenal finish. The ring is stamped sterling and hallmarked by the artist.
Most people know Opal for its distinctive play of color, it is a semi-transparent solidified mineral composed of silicon and water, and it gets its name from the Latin word "Oplus" meaning precious stone. Opal is the birthstone for October. It is believed to release self-consciousness allowing spontaneous action, and awakens psychic and mystical qualities.
