Description

We rarely encounter tourmalines in the history of jewellery - at least until the 1920s. With the emergence of the dynamic forms of Art Deco, the search for new gemstones and unusual combinations of materials also began. In 1924, for example, one could read in the American trade journal The Jeweler's Circular about the Leipzig Jewellery Fair: "Aquamarines, amethysts, tourmalines, opals and even topazes are preferred as settings to rings, while the desire for pearl set rings can once again be satisfied." (A Word About the Jewelry Exhibit at the Leipzig Fair, The Jeweler's Circular, May 7, 1924, p. 65) Green tourmaline in particular enjoyed growing popularity at the time. Although its colour is reminiscent of an emerald, it is characterized by greater clarity and brilliance. In the ring presented here, such a stone is set in a particularly effective way: set slightly raised, the deep green, natural gemstone - a so-called verdelite - unfolds its full luminosity. The classic step cut with a generous table impressively accentuates the rich colour. The platinum setting and the stepped ring shoulders with small diamond roses are in the typical Art Deco style and make the clear, deep green particularly radiant. The side view shows an openwork gallery that enhances the incidence of light and gives the stone an additional lively effect. The ring was probably designed and manufactured in Germany. An independent expert opinion confirms the high quality of the materials used.
