Rings with a row of gemstones arranged across the finger were particularly popular around 1900. These typically featured three or five stones set in a colorful row: rubies, sapphires, opals, or emeralds, almost always combined with diamonds. However, the choice of gemstone was not merely aesthetic; in gemlore, the "language of jewels," certain messages could also be conveyed through this selection. Rubies and diamonds are set in this ring. Due to its color, the ruby is traditionally associated with passion: "Ruby is passion," as the famous British painter Sir Edward Burne-Jones once said. Combined with diamonds, which have been associated with eternity for centuries due to their hardness, the result is a deeply romantic message. All the stones in the ring are hand-cut and set in gold. It is particularly noteworthy that these are untreated rubies from Burma—traditionally regarded as the best origin for these bright red stones. The diamonds, too, captivate with their brilliant fire. The ring, which we discovered in Hamburg, is in excellent condition. Thanks to its particularly delicate and slender design, it is comfortable to wear in everyday life and makes an ideal engagement ring.
