The Weimar Republic: for a brief moment it seemed possible, the dream of a happier society without hardship and poverty, in new luxury and beauty. The First World War was over, the economy began to warm up and a new style conquered art, architecture and handicrafts: Art Deco. In the nightclubs, in the theater, in the cabarets - captured in films such as "The Blue Angel" with Marlene Dietrich - life was raging, diamonds sparkled in the electric light in the new, geometric designs. This ring was created in those very years. At its center is a triumvirate of old-cut diamonds, each accompanied by a midnight blue sapphire at the top and bottom. They are accompanied by small diamond roses on the ring face. Judging by its workmanship, hallmark and design, the ring was probably created in Germany, as we know of numerous similar designs from jewelry catalogs of the Weimar Republic. Typical is the shield-shaped elongated ring face of the ring forged from gold and inlaid with platinum, called "Platina" in catalogs of the time. Decorated with finely cut arabesques and delicate millegrains, it plays with light and shadow. In its design and fine, detailed workmanship, the ring is a typical piece of German Art Deco jewelry.
