Boulder Fire Opal Ring "Egypt Tale"
Egyptian Opal Statement Ring in Oxidized Silver
Egypt Tale is a statement ring in oxidized 925 sterling silver, set with a boulder fire opal triplet of 8 × 6 mm, with the symbols of ancient Egypt carved around it: the protective Cat, the Lotus, the stars and the moon. It is the same design as our solid gold Egypt Tale, made in silver.
Each of those symbols was in daily use rather than ornamental. The cat guarded the household and stood for Bastet. The lotus closed at night and opened at dawn, which made it the figure for renewal. The oxidized finish deepens the shadow in the carving so the symbols stay readable.
The opal is a triplet: a dark backing, a slice of natural opal, and a clear protective cap. The dark ground is what makes the play-of-colour read, and the cap shields a stone that is soft at 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale.
Worn as an opal statement ring, as a vintage-feeling silver ring, or as an engagement ring.

Kindly note that healing gemstone meanings are not prescriptions or healthcare information.
The ancient Egyptians long believed that cats were custodians of divine energy and worshiped them as such, perhaps that is why they were able to conquer the known world during the era of the Pharaohs.
Egyptian Cats are a representation of that very life force and energy and commonly seen to adorn medallions, rings and other pieces of jewelry.
That’s why wearing an Egyptian Cat Symbol today is certain to put you on the frontlines of taking advantage of their powers. They are responsible for increasing fertility and the promotion of pleasure in a home.
At BlackTree Collection, one of our favorite Egyptian Cat pieces is the “Egypt Tale”, an exquisite opal ring made out of sterling silver and carrying a single Boulder Fire Opal Crystal in its center.
This statement ring was handcrafted and has a vaunted finishing showing the beauty of the Egyptian Cat on its surface.
