When we think of Art Deco, the wild 1920s with their graphic patterns and acute-angled geometries usually come to mind. But as the times progressed, the shapes of jewellery also changed. The two-dimensional, graphic designs became much more physical and sculptural from the 1930s onward, and a new form of Art Deco emerged, also known as "Retro Style" in English - which remained popular into the 1950s. The present ring is a representative of this style and was made in the years around 1950. It is forged from white gold and richly set with quality diamonds. Three large brilliant cut diamonds are the highlights of the design. They occupy the center, from which sculpturally curved decorative shapes - volutes and semicircles - emanate to the sides. All elements seem to overlap, shadow gaps give the design an additional depth. This is precisely what makes the ring so attractive: It is a three-dimensional object and beautiful even in the side views. The ring is hand forged and gathers a total of nearly one carat of brilliant and 8/8 cut diamonds. This also attests to the ring's creation in the years following World War II. High-quality materials were finally available again to goldsmiths for new creations, unlike in the 1940s when mostly rather old pieces of jewelry were reworked. The era of new beginnings thus also found its glamorous expression in jewellery. We have discovered the perfectly preserved ring here in Berlin.
