Luxurious Ring With Sapphire & Diamonds From An Antique Brooch, Around 1920 & Later

Description

In the midst of the ever more rapidly changing world of the years after the World War, the artists and craftsmen of Art Deco sought to find a new formal language that would be appropriate to the new era. They rejected the formal language of Art Nouveau, which seemed to them too sweet, too transfigured, and sought geometric rigor. This alone seemed to them appropriate for the age of automobiles, skyscrapers and express trains. The ring presented here is also developed entirely from geometry. The large ring covers an entire finger limb. Towards the center, the shape swings outward, leaving room in the middle for a large, square sapphire. Fine milegrains, calibrated smaller sapphires, delicate settings and, last but not least, the clear geometry of the design allow us to date the ring to the Art Deco years. The interplay of white and blue colours also makes the present ring a cool yet elegant eye-catcher. However, a closer look reveals that the ring was probably a brooch. A few years ago, the lower cadence and the ring band were added in white gold, thus turning the brooch into a ring. On this occasion, the entire ring was also once rhodium-plated, so that today it shines uniformly in white. The ring found its way to us as is.
