Description

The year 1911: International Women's Day is celebrated for the first time; on this day, over a million people in various countries draw attention to the efforts of the women's movement, which is tirelessly campaigning for women's suffrage and civil rights. In Helsinki, Jean Sibelius conducts the world premiere of his fourth symphony. The Mona Lisa is stolen from the Louvre and will not be returned until 1913. And in Munich, the artist group Der Blaue Reiter exhibits for the first time: Its best-known representative today, Franz Marc, painted his Blue Horse that year. In this year full of important cultural events, the ring presented here was also submitted to the Birmingham Examination Office. We know this from the British hallmarks on the inside, which accurately notes the year and other information about the ring. We also know that it was made by the Birmingham-based goldsmiths Nathan Brothers, who ran their manufactory in Vyse Street. The ring is a classic British piece of jewellery from before the First World War. Three high-quality rubies shine in deep red in a bed of rich, high-carat gold between old-cut diamonds. We have had them polished so that the rubies now shine as brightly as on the first day.
