Description

When, after the long years of war, food shortages, currency reform and the first reconstruction, the lust for life also returned to German cities and parlors, when the economic miracle made possible a first new prosperity in the centers of industry and commerce, the art of jewellery design also awoke to new life after many years of a dreamless sleep. Rich yellow gold and brightly colored stones, arranged in modernist designs, reflected the optimism and spirit of optimism of the time. The present ring from the 1950s is such a piece. With its polished coral cabochon, it pays homage to the beauty and richness of the Italian Mediterranean, but the ring was made in Köthen, Anhalt, as the hallmarks inside the ring band reveal. The fine geometry of the design with its wide framing of golden bars is abstract and expressive, typical of the time. The beautiful hand-forged ring is wonderfully preserved.
