The artworks of Art Nouveau show an astonishing variety of forms. What all the designers who worked in the years around 1900 and who we now call Art Nouveau, Art Nouveau or Stil Liberty artists had in common was that they were looking for new forms. Their art and craftsmanship had to be in harmony with the modern world and correspond to the changed technology, the new society and the new life. However, their solutions were very different. While in France the Nancy School led the way and floral motifs were transformed into spectacular new art forms, in Vienna the Wiener Werkstätte emerged with a stricter approach to ornamentation. Almost every European center found its very own form of this style. The shape of this ring with six diamonds in gold and platinum is entirely in keeping with this new taste: a small tendril develops from a gold ring band with bold curves, playing with the light with a diamond-studded leaf in such a way that it is a joy to look at. A large old-cut diamond protrudes from the ring face and looks like a sparkling flower. According to the hallmark on the inside of the ring band, the ring was created in Germany. It is a testimony to the heyday of Art Nouveau that still delights the heart today. The ring came to us from the Allgäu region. A light coating of rhodium ensures that the ring appears very bright and almost white.
