In the Golden Twenties, jewellery of cool elegance and the greatest luxury was created in Europe and the world. Intoxicated by the speed of the new automobiles, delighted by the bubbles of champagne and still dizzy from the view of the new skyscrapers, a very unique design language emerged in bright colors, shiny metal and richly set with sparkling gemstones. It was the time of the large jewelry companies in Paris and New York, which catered to an international clientele from the aristocracy, film and business world. But independent masters were also designing pieces of previously unseen finesse and perfection. In contrast to the historicizing forms of the 19th century, but also in contrast to the colourful Art Nouveau style, which was close to natural forms, they created jewellery that was deliberately modern, dynamic and non-representational. This geometric platinum ring is a child of this exciting period. The showpiece is an octagonal natural emerald held by a simple white gold frame. The stone comes from the mines of Colombia and displays the impressively intense green color that makes these stones world-famous. 30 diamonds in old cuts surround the colored stone with white light. A delicate undercut allows plenty of light to reach the sides of the stones without making the ring face impractically high. The shape and workmanship indicate that it was created in the 1920s. We discovered the ring in Switzerland. An independent expert opinion has confirmed the quality of the materials used.
