Three lilac amethysts in a rectangular step cut form the central setting of this ring from the 1930s. The work of warmly shining yellow gold is forged by hand and shows with its expressive voluminous design the formal language of the late German Art Deco. After the undisputed dominance of white jewels in the 1910s and 1920s, yellow gold, rose gold and colored gemstones became increasingly popular again in the 1930s and 1940s. Here now, yellow gold is combined with amethysts accompanied by two white diamonds. The side view of the transverse ring face is also beautiful. Naturalistic leaf motifs proliferate there, contrasting with the expressive geometry of the face. In its expressive form, the ring is a piece of jewellery that is as decorative and luxurious today as it was then!

The 1920s brought a new style to the world of jewellery with Art Deco: geometric abstractions, luxurious materials and luxurious furnishings were sought after and supplied by goldsmiths in Paris, London and Vienna as well as their counterparts in Berlin and overseas. The longer and wider the style spread, the more the forms evolved. Thus, in Paris and the USA, a special variety of late Art Deco emerged in the years after 1930, which in the USA is called "retro" jewellery: The shapes became stronger, more corporeal, and the jewellery once again more splendid. Fashion now preferred jewelry made of yellow or red gold to those made of platinum or white gold, and colored stones replaced diamonds in popularity. The surfaces of the gold were fanned out geometrically and the jewels were conceived almost like cubist architectures.
