The aquamarine in the center of this ring from around 1940 sparkles like a shimmering pool of light blue seawater. The stone shines in a light aquatic blue, the very shade that gave it its name. An elegantly designed yellow gold setting with white gold and rose gold accents holds the octagonal faceted gemstone and gives it the ideal stage to shine to advantage. The linear design of the gold ring reflects the formal language of German Art Déco. A small hallmark on the inside of the ring also helps to date the ring. The ring band bears the so-called "Laurin" mark, the letters "Ln" in ligature. This mark was introduced in the German Reich in 1936 and, as a quality mark of the goldsmiths' guild, guaranteed a certain minimum quality of craftsmanship and material. Only used until 1945, the mark is named after the dwarf king Laurin from the Rosengarten in the Dolomites, of whom old legends tell us. In a contemporary advertisement for Laurin jewelry, the dwarf king is used in this way: "From the shaft of the magic mountains / Laurin, the lord of the dwarves / Mines precious stones and jewels / For our adornment and feast for the eyes." We discovered the ring in Vienna. It is in very good condition.
