Elegant Déco Ring with Diamonds in Platinum, c. 1925

It is no coincidence that the ring has always been one of the most popular forms of jewellery: In addition to its often symbolic meaning, it is one of the few pieces of jewellery that the wearer can admire at any time. And this ring, too, is far too beautiful to be hidden under a glove. The elongated, octagonal ring face follows the geometric design language of Art Deco. At the center, five hand-cut diamonds are arranged in a straight row. The largest of them weighs 0.45 carats and has a white colour with very good clarity (VS1). Four additional old-cut diamonds, totaling approximately 0.40 carats and ranging in quality from good to very good, flank it on both sides in simple bezel settings. Multiple tiers of delicately openwork frames surround the center stones and are set apart from them by a shadow line; thus lending the ring face a sense of visual depth. Delicate milgrains accentuate the contours, while two small diamond roses at the transitions to the ring shoulders provide subtle accents. The platinum front gives the ring its cool, white luster; the supporting structure and the narrow ring band are made of high-karat gold. The ring was created around 1925, when Art Deco replaced the flowing lines of the turn of the century with clear geometry and well-ordered surfaces. Set with a total of approximately 0.87 carats of diamonds, it combines the unique beauty of historic cuts with the elegant austerity of its era.
