This ring from the USA immediately captivated us with its vibrant color. In addition to cool white gold and sparkling white diamonds, it presents a wonderful ruby in fiery pink-red. It is an untreated ruby from Burma, the classic, most precious origin of first-class rubies. Opposite the ruby is a shining brilliant-cut diamond in fine white. This elegant duo identifies the ring as a so-called "toi-et-moi" piece of jewelry. This type of "you-and-me" was created in the years around 1900 and carries a romantic message, because in the imagination of the time, a man and woman face each other as lovers: Recognizable as independent elements, yet firmly connected by their feelings and symbolically united in a piece of jewelry. The design of the ring is therefore based on pieces of jewelry from the Belle Époque, but the design in strong white gold and with sparkling diamond baguettes and other diamonds on the curved ring shoulders is typical of the optimistic era of the 1950s and 1960s. We therefore date the ring to around 1960. There are two independent appraisals for the ring, which confirm the quality of the materials and the origin of the ruby.
