Hello guys. I have a ring that was given to me by my grandmother before she died. The story says that it was given to her by her grandmother who was a Cherokee Indian living in Tennessee. Supposedly it was around the turn of the century. I believe it is a large opal and 14k gold band. It also has three tiny diamonds. That's the story...how much of it is true I have no idea and I don't know if the diamonds are real or any of it for that matter but my grandma seemed to believe it was truth. I will attach a picture and any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, how much might it be worth, just out of curiosity.

It looks hand crafted but not Native American. I have never seen diamonds in native jewelry. A local jeweler should be able to tell you more. Does it have any markings in the band? The stone looks more pearl or something like that. Opals usually have flashes of color in them that come through.
