In Germany, we know Paris as the city of love. In France, however, the metropolis on the Seine is known as the city of light, la ville lumière. The origins of this name date back to the 19th century, when Paris was the first city on the continent to be illuminated by the then new gas light. As early as 1830, the glow of the arcades at night was legendary throughout Europe. And the city has been glowing and attracting visitors ever since. This ring comes from Paris and is also a celebration of light. The ring is made of platinum. The narrow, simply grooved ring band bears a transverse ring face. Five beautiful old-cut diamonds appear to almost float in its oval center. At the top and bottom, bands of diamond roses surround the center gemstones, which are staggered in size. The design is geometric and elegant and stylistically marks the transition from the Belle Époque to Art Déco, which was surprisingly fluid in the jewelry sector. According to the hallmarks, it was made in Paris (although, as is customary in France, the hallmarks are applied to the outside of the ring band). We also discovered it for you in the French capital.
