Description

The beauty of many old pieces of goldsmith's work is that they have character. This is evoked by the handwork in which they were created and distinguishes them from the vast majority of modern pieces of jewellery, which are designed on computers and then cast by machines. Antique pieces like this ring are a good example of this: A natural emerald in an unusual cut, not a perfect oval, not a perfect drop, forms the center of the ring, and eight equally non-uniform rose cut diamonds form a sparkling frame. Every facet of the gemstones has been created by hand, with the gemstone cutters taking care to preserve as much of the precious material as possible. Perfectly symmetrical gemstones are a relatively new fashion and only became possible when the amount of raw material available was so great that one could afford to perfect the cut shapes so that the gemstones could form perfect geometric figures. The gemstones are set in warm gold and are held securely in place by delicate settings with milgrains ornaments. The milgrains wheel, which is used to create this type of dotted line, was not regularly used in Europe until around 1900. Our ring, even though its warm colors make it look like a testimony to the 19th century, was therefore created in the early years of the 20th century. We discovered the ring in Spain.
