What this ring is made of

Cabochon, set east-west: A smooth, polished dome with no facets. It is used for opals and other stones that are loved for their color and play of light rather than for brilliance.
East-west: The stone lies across the finger instead of along it, which gives a wider, lower look and suits long shapes like ovals, marquises and emerald cuts.
Bezel: A smooth rim of metal wraps the whole stone. It is the most secure and the lowest setting, with nothing to catch on knitwear or hair, though it covers a little of the stone’s edge.
Milgrain: A row of tiny beads along the edges. It is the detail that makes a ring look antique, and it softens the line where metal meets stone.
14k yellow gold: 14k yellow gold is 58% pure gold. It is harder than 18k, so it resists scratches and bending better, and the color is slightly paler.
