Beautiful black opal 925 sterling silver engagement ring made with a AAAA rare quality grade oval faceted 8x6mm natural black fire opal gemstone.
Alternatively a AAA quality grade black opal is also available featuring mixed colors and beautiful play of color in slightly darker or less red colored fire.
Both options are excellent: rare opal has just an exceptional brightness and/or unusually high amount of red colored fire in the opal.
The opal has extremely vibrant play of color, so it is consistent with very high or even rare quality grade due to the vibrant red colored fire which is the most sought after color in a black opal. The fire is very bright and crisp and is visible under any lighting conditions.
The opal is set into a classic accented engagement ring setting designed with a unique touch of floral influence added to the side stones little side settings that hold them in place.
The accent stones are genuine white topaz 2 mm round gemstones.
The opals I use in my line of jewelry are very beautiful and colorful and hard to find and therefore they require a unique setting to highlight their splendor and together create an exquisite piece of jewelry featuring one of a kind design, which is a part of my own jewelry collection and my esthetic vision.
My collection is defined by mostly classic shapes and traditional bridal jewelry staples with a very subtle unique touch or a small personal detail which separates my jewelry from other brands and allows me to focus primarily on the quality of a gemstone that goes into that setting that I designed with intentional simplicity.
My main passion is finding the best quality grade natural opal: only the excellent, handpicked opals and moissanites are used in all of the jewelry I sell in this

🟣PROCESSING TIME:
▪️I put as much time, effort and care into creating each made to order piece of jewelry as is necessary to bring it to the achievable perfection. Almost every item is made only to order, unless indicated otherwise, and it usually takes 1-2 weeks to fulfill most orders;
▪️MAXIMUM processing time is set for 4 weeks due to occasional circumstances that are out of my control;
▪️I don’t have solid gold inventory, so I have to have extra time for ordering settings for ALL solid gold orders, so min processing time is 2 weeks for solid gold jewelry;
▪️I work entirely alone, so if I am not available for any reason such as health or other obligations, there’s nobody else who can replace me;
▪️I do accept URGENT ORDERS, which I can make in a short time, but you have to leave a note for me with the DEADLINE when you need your item to arrive; many items are eligible for expedited shipping;
____________
🟣SHIPPING:
▪️Your item will be shipped packaged in a beautiful velvet jewelry box, with a complimentary polishing cloth and a care instructions sheet included with every order;
▪️Your item will have a tag attached to it with my signature, date and your initials - take it off after you decided that it has no defects or problems that you would like to report;
▪️I prioritize on the security and safety of the item, so I package everything to keep the jewelry protected from damage in transit or from unnecessary oxidation. Please arrange your item for gift giving and don’t forget to INCLUDE CARE INSTRUCTIONS with your gift!

___________________________________
🟣MATERIALS and QUALITY STANDARD:
▪️The materials used in creating my jewelry are ONLY genuine top quality Ethiopian Welo Fire Opal of AAA quality grade or higher, high quality genuine moissanite of VVS or higher clarity and authentic precious metals: solid 925 Sterling silver, 10k or 14k yellow, rose and white gold.
▪️ All opals are NATURAL, EARTH MINED, SOLID AND ETHICALLY SOURCED;
I NEVER use doublets/triplets opals, artificially enhanced, lab created, or man made opals; authentication is available upon request;
▪️I prefer to use higher quality 925 sterling silver settings made with rhodium or white gold plated finish. This is a newer industry standard which allows to manufacture solid 925 sterling silver jewelry which is greatly resistant to tarnish with improved durability and appearance that features highly polished smooth surface and requires minimum maintenance care. I will continue to offer plain silver settings until they are completely sold out to be replaced with the high end silver settings that I purchase from very reliable professional supplier I’ve worked with for years.
▪️Although I have professional manufacturing partner, ALL OF MY DESIGNS ARE ORIGINAL and are the intellectual property of Kissed By Fire Jewelry, LLC;
▪️All solid gold, natural diamonds and moissanite are always tested for authenticity, and therefore I can GUARANTEE that all of the materials I use are 100% GENUINE, SAFE and HYPOALLERGENIC and come from SUSTAINABLE SOURCES;
▪️I use natural gemstones, so an occasional tiny inclusion, a scratch or a tool mark can occur sometimes, but it will be small and undetectable with naked eye;

🟣GEMSTONE CHOICE:
▪️ White fire opals are MORE COLORFUL and have more natural brilliance than black opals if you are looking for a gift but are unfamiliar with the gemstone and it’s properties. Opt for a white opal as a safer choice that will effortlessly appeal to the vast majority of people.
💎People who have active lifestyles, progressive mindset and who want to make a difference in doing the right thing for the planet, should definitely consider buying moissanite jewelry: it will last forever as it is essentially a diamond, and its production doesn’t harm innocent people suffering from abuse mining diamonds, and is not polluting the Earth. It is called “the Earth’s most brilliant gem” for a reason, and it’s fire will take your breath away!

🟣OPAL PHOTO DISCLAIMER:
▪️Each Opal is very unique and special. Just like you are. That’s why we love them.
But this gemstone has certain features that make it very hard or impossible to objectively represent them via photos and videos with a degree of absolute precision. Please keep this in mind when you are looking through the available items and the listing images. The item you will receive is going to LOOK DIFFERENT from the listing photos and videos, but THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NORMAL and is to be expected from any natural opal due to its very nature and physical properties;
▪️Being the true chameleons, natural opals change their visible colors depending on the slightest changes in the lighting environment, camera angle, movement and everything else around them.
Even if the two opals have extremely similar features, they still will offer their own unique way of interacting with the light, which is what defines this gemstone and gives it its "personality". And just like people, opal’s personalities are very unique and are ALWAYS CHANGING depending upon their surroundings;
▪️The play of color in any natural opal results from a process of constant interaction between the light and the opal’s complex inner structure producing that unique combination of colors that we know as visible “fire”. It is not only unique to each individual opal, but is produced following the movement and the changes in the surrounding light - without the light you cannot see opal’s fire at all, because light is what creates the play of color. That’s why every opal’s appearance depends upon its continuous interaction with the light which produces different color combinations, determines the brightness, fire intensity etc., Even the very same opal is going to look different from its own photos depending on the lighting environment that exists around it at each specific moment;
▪️Even making a video does not provide a solution to this problem, because of the exposure related artifacts that either dampen all colors and the opal’s natural vibrancy or exaggerate these qualities in other cases. This happens whenever camera settings cannot readjust fast enough to capture fast changes in color brightness that inevitably result from continuous movement. This particularly affects white opals of the highest quality grade that look overexposed and colorless: they only show bright white color with little to no visible colors or glow - nothing can be more different from what you will see in real life;
