1912 has become known in Western historiography as the year in which the Titanic sank; a symbol of splendor, progress and tragic end at the same time. This antique ring from England, which looks like a symphony of midnight blue and starry white, also dates from that year and has found its way to us in Berlin today. The design widens towards the center and reveals a sparkling arrangement of three deep blue sapphires, between which two small octagonal diamonds are set. On the side, the undercrown of high-carat yellow gold is decorated with fine, engraved spiral scrolls. Rings of this type have been extremely popular since the late 19th century and were made in a wide variety of material combinations. The choice of stones was always based on symbolic considerations in order to convey a visible message. Our ring speaks of fidelity and constancy, symbolized by sapphire and diamond, to which these meanings were attributed in the ancient language of gemstones. According to the hallmark, this fine goldsmith's work was created in England's second largest city, Birmingham. The Belle Époque, that international era of economic and social progress, was drawing to a close. But there is no sign of this in the shape of this ring: it once again celebrates the great festival of beauty and abundance.
