About the Stone Opal
Qualities
- Opals are associated with clarity, insight and transformation. It is often used as a cleansing and healing stone that can help with recovery after a traumatic heartbreak.
Colour
- Opals are a magnificent stone with unique colour plays and patterns. Unlike any other gem, opals can display all the colours of the rainbow in an iridescent, moving pattern.
Durability
- Opals are softer gemstones, so care does need to be taken when wearing.
- However, we’ve had Opal rings that have lasted over 100 years which demonstrate that with protective settings and proper care, they can be treasured for years to come.
Condition
- Good, pre-owned, vintage condition.
- There is a small nibble to the underside of the Opal.
Packaging
- Packaged in a pink, velvet jewellery box with a ribbon tie.
- Shipped in our signature pink, packaging box.

Add this to your basket at the same time as purchasing ring if you would like a valuation of your ring from an independent company.
This document can be provided to your insurance company to insure your ring. Your insurance company might not require this document and may accept your order confirmation email as purchase proof. Please check with your insurance company.
We strongly recommend that you insure your ring. If your ring was to get knocked or damaged and a stone get lost, something possible with all rings, whether new or vintage, you will be able to claim to repair and replace your ring.
More helpful information
- The valuation will be sent as a pdf document to the email address that you order your ring with.
- The valuation takes 1 - 3 weeks to be sent.
- On some occasions it may take up to 2 weeks for the ring to arrive, if ordering a certificate, because the ring will need to be taken in for independent valuation before being posted to the customer.
- Because it is personalised, the valuation is non-refundable.
- The valuation will list the carat of the Gold and authenticate the stones (Diamond, Sapphire etc). It does not detail the clarity, colour or carat weight of the stones.

If you’ve already received your ring and didn’t order the valuation, please email us and we might be able to arrange one for you. We might need the ring sent back to us for this.
Please add this to the basket at the same time as purchasing a ring if you would like your ring resized.
Please leave a ‘note’ on your order or email hello@vintagepink.com with your requested size and explain whether you would like Option 1 or 2 outlined below.
Option 1
Your ring will be resized before being shipped to you. Your ring will be non-refundable in this instance. You will only pay for one set of postage costs.
Option 2
Your ring will be sent to you to check that you love it and would like to keep it. You will then send it back to Vintage Pink for resizing. You will pay two sets of postage costs.
More helpful information
- Resizing takes up to 3 weeks.
- If it isn’t specified by the customer and an order is made with the resizing option as part of the order and a size requested, Vintage Pink will assume Option 1 and go ahead with resizing to the requested size.
- If you need to check what size you need then it is best to go into a local jeweller and ask them to measure your finger. Alternatively there are some ring sizers online. Check your size when you are warm and cold to make sure that it feels comfortable in both.
Please order this if you’d like your pink packaging box to be put inside a grey shipping bag to make your order more discreet.
Please note that the address label on the package is still pink, but it does not say Vintage Pink anywhere.
If you are trying to keep your order a secret and you think that the pink label might make someone in the household curious about the parcel we recommend shipping your ring to a trusted family member or friend.

Sophie
Sophie messaged us as soon as we posted this vintage Tsavorite Garnet ring back in May and was gutted when it sold. Little did she know that a few months later this ring would be hers; symbolising something so special 💍
She messaged us straight away: ‘My Dream Ring!! Thank you so much, I can’t believe it!! 💍🩷’
We love how it looks amongst her other rings ✨✨
Congratulations Sophie & Tom and thanks for choosing Vintage Pink for such a special purchase. We a small business and never take for granted the love that our customers have for the rings that we source.
A customer story from
Roisin
'Last year was a huge year for me; I turned 30 in last June, it was a year full of adventures, and a career defining moment, so it was important to me to have a ring that represented that, so I was willing to wait for the right one to come along.
The ring HAD to be vintage, unique and special, so obviously I had been following Vintage Pink for as long as I could remember and admiring their pieces. Then to my surprise I spotted the flower ballerina ring and I knew it was the one!
It arrived and I’ve fallen in love with her, she’s absolutely perfect and I really couldn’t be happier! 💖 My ring collection feels complete.
A customer story from
Teri
Teri said that she nearly shed a tear when the ring that she’d had her eye on, our vintage 18ct white gold, Aquamarine and Diamond ring, had sold.
Little did she know, her boyfriend was going to surprise her with it ✨✨
‘OMG I’m absolutely BUZZING! I got the ring!! 🥹💍🩷’
We are in awe of the vintage ring, orange sunset, and pink, heart nails. Magic. ❤️💖🌅💍
