In many respects, jewellery from the 1950s is indebted to late Art Deco. The lines had already become increasingly sculptural and expansive in the 1930s, and gleaming yellow gold was the material of choice. In the years after the war, at a time of sudden economic upturn, this taste was finally able to fully develop. The economic miracle not only brought people new prosperity, but also a time of social events, elegant soirées and dinner parties. Both of these developments are reflected in this ring, which was designed to adorn the hand at cocktail hour. Between the slightly concave, satin-finished shoulders, the ring presents three small diamonds in white gold settings to the left and right of the main stone. Between them lies the real showpiece: a large, medium blue aquamarine in an octagonal step cut, whose facets reflect the light in all shades of its aqua blue hue. What is remarkable about colored stones from this period is that they generally have a significantly higher purity than many of the stones used today - as is the case here: the aquamarine is eye-clean and no inclusions detract from its beauty. The ring has survived excellently since the time of the economic miracle. Its midcentury aesthetic is still convincing today, it is powerful and looks fresh. This makes this piece of jewellery not only an ideal addition to any collection of high-quality vintage jewellery, but also an exceptional little gem with a truly beautiful aquamarine.
