Elegant Antique Ring With Rubies & Diamonds, circa 1915

When one thinks of large, rectangular rings, Art Deco pieces come to mind. However, the first designs in straight, geometric shapes appeared shortly before the First World War and celebrated a brief but intense flowering. Around 1910, rings, necklaces, brooches and other pieces were designed in geometric lines, which formed a charming contrast to more playful elements. Calibrated gemstones, i.e. gemstones cut to precisely fit narrow borders, were also a new fashion of those years. We find both style features combined in the ruby ring presented here. The elegant piece centers on a large natural ruby surrounded by a border of white old European cut diamonds. Another border, now made of calibrated rubies, finishes the design on the outside. Gold highlights the rubies, platinum the diamonds. Rings like this one were part of evening wear at the time of their creation: people preferred to combine coloured gemstones with fabrics in matching colours. So perhaps the first wearer wore raspberry-coloured ribbons or lace on her evening gown. The ring is beautifully preserved. Probably in earlier times the ring band was renewed, perhaps because the original one was too fine and delicate. We discovered the ring as it presents itself to us today and have had an appraisal made for this elegant piece. It is supplied with the ring.
