Fire opal ring, circa 1940. Fire opals are an unusual variety of opal, found primarily in Mexico. Popularised in the 19^th century, fire opals only occasionally show the rainbow iridescence associated with most opals, but more than make up for it with their distinctive and highly attractive body colours, ranging from a glowing orange to a deep cherry red. This oval cut fire opal shows the classic bright orange body colour for which these stones are best known. A striking and bold cocktail ring – the perfect statement piece for special occasions.
