Flat, graphic pieces of jewelry in a uniform white color scheme dominated the displays of jewelers in the 1920s. As time went on, the designs became more plastic and sculptural, although they still retained a love of geometry and abstraction. Often executed in yellow and red gold with only small platinum accents, these later pieces are also referred to as "retro style". This glamorous style defined jewelry creation from the late 1930s right through to the 1950s. The present ring made of high-carat gold corresponds to this style based on Art Déco, which remained modern until the middle of the century. The center of the ring face is designed in the form of a draped roll of fabric. A beautiful old-cut diamond of just under a quarter of a carat glitters in its center. Two organic-looking elements reminiscent of gazelle horns frame the center and lead to the wide ring band. The ring is a wearable contemporary witness from a particularly eventful chapter in history. With its large size, the ring also adorns strong fingers and is an eye-catcher that is as extravagant as it is stylish!
