Plastic, voluminous, even architectural shapes defined the ring fashion of the late 1940s and 1950s. In contrast to the rings from the early days of Art Deco, they were red or yellow gold, large in size, and usually set with coloured stones. This style, in which wide bracelets and voluminous brooches were also designed, is also called retro style. The present ring corresponds to this fashion and richly equipped. It features an old-cut diamond in the center, each flanked by a natural green tourmaline on the side. The two colour stones show a rich olive green tone and are square faceted. The undercadding of the gemstones is ornamentally designed and shows up in the form of golden leaves and vines that are finely fleshed out. A contrast of warm yellow gold and cool platinum further enriches the ring's impression. The ring with its unusual stone setting is a wonderful example of the extravagance and ingenuity of retro style. It is in very good condition.
