Strong and at the same time detailed, expressive and yet of subtle sophistication is the ring presented here from the goldsmith's workshop of Otto Klein. Klein's workshop, founded as early as 1909, was known for ornate jewels well into the 20th century. The company was based in Hanau, known for its high-quality handmade jewellery since the 19th century. The modernist, tripartite band of cool, gleaming white gold widens toward the center, where it presents a fan-like centerpiece: it looks like the wheel of a peacock or a precious fan of ostrich feathers. To the left and right, two curved bands of white gold are set with sparkling old-cut diamonds. They frame a central band of three sapphires. Their pale blue, pastel color shows a slight tinge of lilac. The bold design language and juxtaposition of dynamic bands betrays the ring's origin around 1950. However, as is sometimes the case with precious jewels forged in the immediate post-war period, gemstones with older cuts were used here. Usually, the diamonds were taken from heirlooms or old stock to save costs. Thus, they give the ring an even more individual look and a history that goes beyond the time of its own manufacture.
