The style of the platinum ring with a large, flat ring face emerged toward the end of the Belle Époque and then reached its peak during the Art Deco period of the 1920s. This shield shape—whether round-oval or designed as a cartouche—catered to the era’s preference for jewelry designs whose surfaces seemed to dissolve entirely into white light. Moreover, the basic shape of the shield was perfectly suited to showcasing the delicate craftsmanship of that period. This ring, too, is based on an elongated oval shape, at the center of which are five old-cut diamonds and four rose-cut diamonds totaling approximately 0.79 ct. Delicate shadow joints structure the oval surface with C-curves and milgrains. While the ring itself is made of yellow gold, the ring face is plated with platinum, which was rarely used in solid form at that time due to its high price. The ring’s shape and craftsmanship suggest it was made around 1925. It has been very good in terms of preservation since then. The ring found its way to us here in Berlin.
