  1. Opal Engagement Rings​ - Soft Stones For Tender Hearts One of the most unusual ways to announce a new bond is with opal engagement rings. These semi-precious gemstones are very soft and perfect for the most feminine and romantic of brides. Opals contain 30 percent water and are most often seen in a milky white color with flecks of blue and green, however other colors on the spectrum like red, yellow, orange and pink exist in opals as well. Still others have more neutral specks of brown, black and gray. Most opals come from Australia which has honored this stone as the national gem. It is also the birthstone for the month of October. Opals are notable as a symbol of creativity, faithfulness and confidence, so suitable for a young couple beginning their new life together. There are many appropriate designs for opal engagement rings. The most sensible is to place a smooth cabochon opal in a bezel setting because opals for all their softness do not make suitable candidates for faceted cuts. When shopping for a quality opal, look for a stone that is smoothly polished and has a glossy surface free from nicks or scratches. Colored flecks should reveal themselves with clarity and not be lost in the cloudy background. Most important, seek a stone with intensely colored flecks. The deeper and stronger the flecks, the more desirable the stone. Opals are unusual in another way too. The best time to shop for them is the early fall. Since opals are the birthstone for the month of October, this is when jewelers have the greatest array of choices. Online jewelers might have a larger selection year round. Opal engagement rings are a way to demonstrate to the world this is a unique couple in love. Let's face facts - buying a diamond engagement ring is one of the most important purchases that you will ever make. It will set the tone for your marriage, and may be more meaningful to you than the purchase of your first home. Not only that, but buying an engagement ring is a big investment. Simply put, you want the best value for your money and you need to deal with someone that you can trust.
