This ring from the early years of the 20th century is characterized by deep, romantic symbolism. A bright blue sapphire sparkles in the center, flanked by two old-cut diamonds - each gemstone is individually cut and therefore unique. Rings with three gemstones, also known as trilogy rings, are of particular significance in the history of jewelry. Their three stones stand for past, present and future - a symbol of enduring affection. Diamonds, the hardest of all gemstones, embody eternity, while sapphires have always been a symbol of intimate, faithful love. The ring band made of high-carat yellow gold is covered with a layer of palladium on the front. This bright, platinum-related metal harmonizes particularly beautifully with the play of colours of the gemstones. The lively, elegant design is reminiscent of the Central European Art Nouveau style that was in vogue c. 1910. At this time, palladium was a newly discovered material for jewelry making: although it had been known since 1805 and mined together with platinum, it was only used increasingly around c. 1910 - at first rarely, then increasingly when platinum was reserved for the war economy and strictly rationed. Numerous pieces of jewellery from these years rely on this new metal. The use of palladium therefore contributes to the dating: The ring was created in England around 1915, made in the workshop of J. Hudson & Co. in Birmingham, as the hallmarks show. It came to us from London - a piece of jewellery that combines history, symbolism and master craftsmanship.
