Description

In the Golden Twenties, jewellery of cool elegance and the greatest luxury was created in Europe and the world. Intoxicated by the speed of the new automobiles, delighted by the bubbles of champagne and still dizzy from the view of the new skyscrapers, a very unique design language emerged in bright colors, shiny metal and richly set with sparkling gemstones. It was the time of the large jewelry companies in Paris and New York, which catered to an international clientele from the aristocracy, film and business world. However, independent masters also designed pieces of previously unseen finesse and perfection. In contrast to the historicizing forms of the 19th century, but also in contrast to the colourful Art Nouveau style, which was close to natural forms, they created jewellery that was deliberately modern, dynamic and non-representational. This geometric ring in white gold is a child of this exciting period. The showpiece is an octagonal natural emerald held by a frame decorated with millegrains. Twelve old-cut diamonds surround the colored stone with white light. They are also set in white gold and adorned with millegriffes. A delicate undercut allows plenty of light to reach the stones at the sides without making the ring face impractically high. The hallmark on the inside of the ring band suggests that the ring was made in the USA. The shape and workmanship suggest that it was made in the 1920s. We discovered the ring in Hamburg.
