Handcrafted Sterling Silver Ring with Ethiopian Welo Opal - Vibrant Smoked Opal - Size 9

Handcrafted with care in my home studio, this one-of-a-kind stacking ring showcases a beautiful rose-cut smoked Welo opal. This natural Ethiopian Welo opal has been gently smoke-treated to create its deep, rich body tone, which dramatically highlights the vivid electric green and blue play-of-color flashes that shift and sparkle with every tilt of your hand—truly mesmerizing!

The opal is faceted in a classic rose cut (oval shape with a domed, multi-faceted top for added brilliance and a flat base), securely bezel-set in high-quality .925 sterling silver. The setting features delicate beaded edging for that perfect vintage-boho touch, adding subtle texture and elegance.

Ring details:

•  Size: 9 (US sizing) – true to size, comfortable for daily wear and stacking

•  Band: Slim, smooth sterling silver shank designed for easy stacking with other rings

•  Metal: Solid .925 sterling silver (nickel-free and hypoallergenic)

•  Stone: Natural smoked Welo opal, rose cut, oval shape

•  Handmade by me – unique, no two exactly alike!

This ring has a moody, ethereal vibe that’s perfect for bohemian outfits, minimalist stacks, or standalone wear. The smoked treatment gives it the dramatic look of rare black opal at a more approachable price point, while the natural flashes keep it full of life and personality.

Note on the stone: There is a minor blemish (small surface inclusion/ imperfection) visible upon close inspection. It does not affect the structural integrity, play-of-color, or overall beauty from normal viewing distance—the flashes are still vibrant and captivating. The price has been adjusted to reflect this honestly, making it an excellent value for such a striking gem.

This piece coordinates beautifully with my matching smoked Welo opal necklace and earring set (sold separately—check my shop listings!). Together, they create a cohesive, dreamy suite that’s perfect for special occasions or elevating everyday looks.
