Luxurious Vintage Gold Ring With Blue & Yellow Sapphires, Paris c. 1985

Description

Rings took on unusual and daring shapes in the 1980s, which clearly distinguished them from the designs of previous decades. Shiny yellow gold and precious gemstones in colourful combinations were particularly popular. The designs, which were often very large, were particularly well suited to this life-hungry era, and their rounded shapes without annoying pronges that could get caught in clothing also made them especially comfortable to wear. Especially the designs from Bulgari caused a sensation and inspired numerous goldsmiths to create similar designs. This ring, made around 1985, belongs to this environment and was made in a Parisian goldsmith's shop, according to its hallmarks. As a central starting point we see a beautiful, medium blue sapphire in a simple gold setting. The gemstone is oval faceted and set across the finger. The stone weighs approximately 6.20 carats and is lifted high above the finger by an intricate base. Forty-eight sunshine yellow and six blue sapphires accompany it here, giving the ring a distinctly luxurious appearance. An independent appraisal by the German Association for Gemstone Evaluation in Idar-Oberstein confirms the quality of the materials used. Handcrafted to perfection, the ring charms just as it did the day it was made - and can be worn immediately! We discovered it in Minden.

Jewellery of the 1980s fascinates to this day, as an often beautiful, and always impressive testimony of a time of optimism and abundance: The oil crisis seemed to be over, Wall Street flourished, and a new image of the woman emerged: self-confident and tough, asserting herself at work, against men, successful, with broad shoulder pads and high heels, she adorned herself with rings, necklaces and brooches in hitherto unusual dimensions, with reflective surfaces of yellow gold and rich trimmings of coloured gemstones. A lot of costume jewellery was created, because executed in real materials the jewellery would have been unaffordable for most women, so large and heavy they should appear. However, real jewellery was also produced in large numbers in the USA and Europe, of course, and went new ways that reflected the fashions of the time.
