The 1950s were an exciting and optimistic time. Marilyn Monroe and Romy Schneider flickered across the cinema screens. The "teenager" became a concept for the first time: young girls in white socks and saddle shoes danced to rock'n'roll and jitterbug, sipped milkshakes with cocktail cherries at the diner. The economic miracle also made its appearance: heavy gold bracelets and colourful gemstones adorned the displays of the jewellers, with longing glances glued to their windows. This platinum ring dates from this period. It presents a wonderfully radiant, intensely pink-red ruby whose facets invite you to linger and dream. The ruby is surrounded by a double entourage of diamonds that follow the slightly oval shape of the gemstone. A baguette-cut diamond is set on the left and right - a subtle highlight that perfectly rounds off the ring's typical mid-century appearance. We have commissioned an independent expert opinion on this exceptional piece of jewelry and the origin of the ruby. This confirmed that the precious ruby is a gemstone from Burma, the most famous site for rubies. It is very likely that the stone comes from the province of Mong Hsu, whose rubies have been reaching the European market since around 1990. The ruby is therefore a later addition to this charming vintage ring.
