Electricity, this mysterious, wonderful force of nature that took hold of the world at the beginning of the 20th century, is invisible. And yet it has a color - at least in our common, culturally shaped memory: electricity is blue. It is a bright blue, like the light of lightning, which first entered the world of fashion as "bleu électrique" and still shapes our imagination today. The first advertisements using this catchphrase as a colour for fabrics can be found in France in the years shortly before 1890, but it was not until the Art Deco period that this idea also entered the world of jewellery. This era, which was dedicated to modernity and progress in all its facets like no other - such as the skyscraper, the automobile and electric light - also loved jewellery in cool, radiant, electrifying colours. This ring celebrates the light of electrons - and makes the wearer's beauty shine through its white and bright blue sparkle. The blue zircon is well suited to forming the centerpiece of such a radiant ring, as its refractive index is almost on a par with that of a diamond! This ring from around 1930 is set with a large blue zircon and small rose cut diamonds. The yellow gold ring holds a high platinum setting, which securely presents the zircon in airy prongs. The sky-blue zircon weighing around 2.50 ct adorns the center of the piece of jewellery. It is accompanied on the right and left by the diamonds on the shoulders, which are typical of the time.
