Description

This ring is crafted from gold with a silver ring face and features a blue sapphire in the center. It is accompanied at the top and bottom by two white diamonds weighing a total of around 0.60 ct. 16 smaller diamonds make the entire ring face sparkle. Historically, these stones have a special meaning in the language of gemstones: the diamonds, which according to legend are indestructible, symbolize eternity, while the sapphire has always been a symbol of loving fidelity. The combination of the radiant diamonds with the dark blue of the sapphire creates a harmonious and successful play of colours in this luxurious piece of Art Deco jewellery. The austere surface design in particular, with its shadow gaps and milgrains, is immediately captivating and transports the cool and glamorous aesthetics of those years into the present day.

A new style for a new era! In the midst of the ever faster changing world of the years after the World War, the artists and craftsmen of Art Deco sought to find a new formal language that would be appropriate for the new era. They rejected the formal language of Art Nouveau, which they found too sweet, too transfigured, and sought geometric rigor. This alone seemed appropriate for the age of automobiles, high-rise buildings and express trains. Plant forms now grew upwards in a sinuous, jagged shape, lightning flashed across the wallpaper as a reference to the electricity that was now used everywhere, and people's bodies also slimmed down and grew in paintings and graphic art.
