All times have their fashions, and all fashions have their effects on jewellery. Jewellery from the 1980s is often beautiful and always impressive, a testimony to a time of optimism and abundance: the oil crisis seemed to have been overcome, Wall Street was flourishing - people sipped cocktails and paid with credit cards, and anything seemed possible. At the same time, a new image of women emerged. Self-confident and tough, asserting herself in her job and against men, successful, with broad shoulder pads and high heels, she adorned herself with rings, necklaces, and brooches in hitherto unfamiliar dimensions, with reflective surfaces made of yellow gold and richly set with coloured gemstones. A lot of costume jewellery was created, as pieces made of real materials would have been unaffordable for most women, as they were intended to look so large and heavy. However, real jewellery was also, of course, produced in large numbers in the USA and Europe. This elegant vintage ring in yellow gold exudes the elegance of the 1980s and surprises with its unusual design: the gold visually forms chain links that fit snugly around the finger. At second glance, it becomes clear that this is a trompe-l’œil effect - the impression of a moving chain is actually only an optical one, as the ring band is cast in one piece. Thus, it is the play with shapes that makes this ring so much fun. Some of the chain links are rhodium-plated and set with small diamonds. This creates an exciting interplay of sparkle and reflection. This beautiful vintage ring came to us here in Berlin and is in very good condition.
