Jewellery of the 1950ies in Germany often relies on late Art Deco designs, as it had been developed since the 1930s and continued to dominate the designs of the major goldsmiths, especially in the USA and France: the image was characterized by rich decoration, sweeping geometries and the exuberant sparkle of high-quality gemstones. This ring was created during this period of new beginnings. At its center is a large, glowing pink sapphire from Burma. It is a wonderful, precious stone that has not been heated or treated in any other way, as determined by an independent expert. It is enclosed with the ring together with an appraisal from Idar-Oberstein. The intensely colored and very clear sapphire is accompanied by fourteen brilliant-cut diamonds. All of the gemstones are set in white gold. Together, they form an oval flower. Further diamonds lead over to the ring band on the sides. It is made from yellow gold, as is the ring's lower band, which frames and protects the gemstone blossom to the sides in elegant arches. This gives the entire design of the ring a clear cohesion. The goldsmith of the ring, who has signed it with his hallmark "B", has designed the piece of jewelry in a very sculptural way, with the gemstones high above the finger. It is a statement piece that aims to draw attention to itself - and succeeds in doing so brilliantly and enchantingly.

Sapphires can be more than just blue! Like rubies, sapphires belong to the corundum group. As all corundum, with the exception of red ruby, is called sapphire in mineralogy, yellow, green, pink and orange sapphires are also found alongside the blue varieties. These stones, if they have an outstanding color quality and are free of inclusions, also fetch high prices in the trade.
