This ring takes us back to the years of late Romanticism. It was during this period that Franz Schubert wrote his song cycle The Winterreise and Victor Hugo published his novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame. In England, these years marked the end of the Georgian Era, before a new era began with Queen Victoria. This ring was created around 1830, a jewel of that sentimental era. At its center is a delicate, symbolic flower. Its pearl petals surround a glowing ruby - a stone that has always stood for passion and love. The floral ring shoulders continue this motif harmoniously. They are made from engraved gold, which itself sprouts small flowers. This design reflects the closeness to nature and the sentimental mood of the time: the language of flowers, a popular form of expression in the 19th century, lent a deeper meaning to pieces of jewelry such as this. The daisy, which this ring is based on, stood for innocence and purity. Could it have been an engagement gift for a young bride? As with many antique pieces of jewelry, the exact provenance remains hidden from us. However, the careful workmanship and the remarkably good condition of the ring reveal that it has been treated with love over the centuries. A careful repair to the back ring band, carried out in later years, testifies to its lasting importance for later generations. Now this romantic piece of jewelry is waiting to continue its story - perhaps on the hand of a new wearer who appreciates the timeless magic of this era.
