Measuring around 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, they appreciate a mindful wearer. Because the stone is protected by a solid, hand-hammered silver bezel rather than exposed prongs, it is brilliantly secured against daily snags. To keep the mirror-bright silver pristine and protect the hand-polished opal face, always remove this ring before swimming, intense hands-on tasks, or exposing it to harsh detergents. Clean simply with a soft microfiber cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOne-of-a-Kind:\u003c\/b\u003e This exact, hand-crafted ring is a completely unique studio piece.
