Milky Way Series #1

This ring features two Mexican Opals, one a long milky opal, and the other a small round brilliant opal. A textured sterling silver band, shorter at the back and taller in the front, the round opal crowning the top of the ring held in 10k Gold and surrounded by stamp work, with milky opal below. 

This Opal is from Magdalena Mexico. The opals here have been mined by indigenous peoples for thousands of years, but after the Spanish conquistadors came to Mexico, the location of the mines was lost until the 1800’s. The mines here are majority local run, and are all polished by independent polishers in the area. Wanderground buys stones directly from polishers, going door to door in communities asking to buy Opal.
