Timeless engagement rings with a single, select diamond solitaire and narrow, elegant band rings were also worn as wedding rings in the early 20th century. But what about rings that were purely jewellery? The term "cocktail ring" can only be traced back to the late 1930s. Before that, large, purely decorative rings were usually referred to as "dress rings" or "dinner rings". The former usually featured colored stones that were intended to complement the eponymous dress. The latter was intended to adorn a dinner or other elegant evening event and was usually set with diamonds. This ring is an example of a dinner ring. It is set in the center with three sparkling old-cut diamonds, which were able to unfold their full effect in the electric light of the evening. A layer of platinum is applied to the ring face, which is made from high-carat white gold, allowing the diamonds to shine even brighter. Six smaller diamonds, milgrains and shadow gaps lend the design the fine detail typical of the time. The ring is in excellent condition and is a characteristic example of diamond jewellery from the Weimar Republic period.
