An independent line of development in Art Déco was Streamline Moderne, which abandoned the playful ornamentation of Art Déco in favour of an aerodynamic design based on clear lines. The new, powerful forms of this so-called "retro style" were intended to emphasise movement and speed and were based on scientific findings. Within a very short space of time, the designers modernised the appearance of watches, radios, telephones, cars, furniture and many other everyday objects. This ring speaks this powerful design language. It is forged from yellow gold and has three gemstones in the centre of its transverse ring head. A cushion-shaped old-cut diamond sparkles in the centre in a platinum setting. It is accompanied by two untreated rubies from Burma. Horizontal gold bands on the sides lead over to the simple ring band, making the ring head look a little like the radiator grille of a car. The ring has an astonishing modernity. It was created around 1940 and came to us from the Rhineland.
