This bangle is made from high-carat, warmly shimmering gold. Its design widens towards the front and is divided into three elements. Golden frames surround reflective areas of midnight blue enamel. Plant shapes in white gold, richly set with diamonds, float on these blue surfaces like floating flowers on a still lake. The ring is crafted by hand, precious and delicate. Its design language is reminiscent of jewellery from the mid-19th century, when the combination of blue enamel and yellow gold was all the rage. The fine engravings with plant shapes are also reminiscent of models from this period. However, the fact that the floral ornaments are executed in white gold is an indication that the hoop must have been created several generations later; white gold was not used more regularly until the 1920s. The hallmark "18K" on the back and other details, such as the side view of the undercrown, also reveal that the hoop was made later, probably around 1940. The forms of the past, reassembled into romantic motifs, became a new fashion in these years, in Germany as well as in Italy, Spain and many other European countries. We were able to acquire the bangle here in Berlin. It has been perfectly preserved in the antique case pictured.
