"Rosso corallo per me" was Nana Mouskouri's wish in a hit song from 1952. A few years later, this expressive ring was also created. These were the years of the economic miracle, when newfound prosperity made long-distance travel possible for large sections of the population for the first time. Italy in particular was the destination of longing for Germans - and one of the essential souvenirs from the sunny south was jewelry made from Mediterranean coral. This large gold ring also pays homage to the beauty and richness of the sea with a large Italian coral cabochon. The setting, including the artfully forged undercut, perfectly showcases the dark red coral. It is a vibrant color that is found mainly around the Mediterranean island of Sardinia among the luxurious sea creatures. The magnificent ring from around 1960 is wonderfully preserved and ready to be worn and admired again.
