In the late 1930s, Parisian jewellery houses in particular developed a variation of Art Deco that is known today as Retro Style. Its warm gold tones and expansive geometric shapes set it apart from the cool, flat designs in diamond-set platinum that had characterised the previous decade. This new style soon spread around the world. Film stars such as Marlene Dietrich with her legendary ruby-set Jarretière bracelet by Van Cleef & Arpels popularised the new fashion worldwide. This ring is a typical representative of this sophisticated design language, which remained a style-defining influence in Germany until the 1950s. The elongated ring head is set at right angles to the finger and features a precious setting. Four full brilliant-cut white diamonds are set in airy prong settings made from white gold bars. On the right and left, dynamically curved yellow gold sections hold the diamond arrangement and lead to the wide ring band. The elegant ring is in good condition and came to us here in Berlin.
