Description

The world at the turn of the century was a world of glamor, luxury and beautiful appearances. On the boulevards of the metropolises, in the cafés and cabarets, the studios and galleries, the concert halls and salons, the bourgeoisie, aristocracy, bohemians and all those who had decided at some point at the transition of the centuries to enjoy themselves from now on gathered. Until the outbreak of war, this stream of festivities, light and amusement continued and rushed through the whole of Europe - from London to St. Petersburg, from Copenhagen to Rome. This ring is a typical representative of the jewellery of this era: elegant, tasteful, light and ornate. The precision with which this piece of jewellery was crafted is particularly evident in the details. The hexagonal ring face presents a beautiful ruby in its center, which is framed by a wreath of white diamond roses. The ring face is also finished off with fine calibrated rubies that trace its hexagonal shape like a surrounding band. The ruby is considered a gemstone of the classic "big 4" (together with diamond, emerald and sapphire). It is known for its warm and unique red color, which forms a visual counterpart to the cool fire of the diamonds in this ring from c. 1910. Raspberry red and white thus contrast with each other and shine in a clear, warm and enchanting play of light. The ring face is flat, making the ring comfortable to wear. The ring band and the lower edge of the ring face are made of yellow gold, while the ring head itself is made of platinum. According to the hallmark, the piece was created in Vienna.
