This Art Déco ring is a so-called "Toi-et-Moi" piece of jewelry - a "you-and-me" design that tells a story. Two old-cut diamonds face each other and are set in sturdy bezel settings. A closer look at the ring face reveals fine millegrains and two smaller diamond roses adorning the front of the ring. Everything about this design is mirror-symmetrical, with one part corresponding to the other in perfect harmony. Designs with two diamonds in the center presented in this way enjoyed great popularity from the period after 1900. People loved to play with symbols: In the imagination of the era, the two large stones stood for man and woman facing each other as lovers - independent elements, yet firmly connected by their feelings and united in one piece of jewelry. This ring is made of white gold, a new alloy at the time, which was able to replace the much more expensive platinum from 1912 onwards. This piece of jewelry comes from Westphalia and is a perfectly crafted goldsmith's work from around 1930 - with a romantic background.
