This vintage band ring has a simple ring band made of warm, shiny yellow gold, which is adorned with three beautiful quality gemstones. Two brilliant-cut diamonds each weigh 0.10 ct. They frame a blue sapphire, which forms the focal point of the ring as an oval cabochon. The ring band widens slightly towards the top. Rings with stones set along the band are also known as alliance rings. They were already being worn in the 19th century. However, these rings also experienced a new fashion in the second half of the 20th century. Not only their timeless appearance, but also the flat gemstones without prongs made them a particularly elegant accessory suitable for everyday wear throughout the decades. The piece of jewelry is the work of the Quinn manufactory in Schwäbisch Gemünd. Back in 1903, Franz Scheurle founded the "Franz Scheurle Silberwarenfabrik", which initially mainly produced cane and umbrella handles, which had become fashionable as a result of the Paris World Exhibition. Under the management of his son, high-quality jewellery was also produced from the 1960s onwards, but initially only for men - later, under the management of Franz Scheurle Junior, women's jewelry and watches were also produced. The designs were often based on Scandinavian and above all Finnish designs, which were characterized by simple, unadorned shapes. In the 1970s, the company was renamed "Quinn" and is currently run as a family business by the fourth generation.
