“A dandy is a man who wears clothes, a man whose trade, office, and very existence consist in the wearing of clothes. Every faculty of his soul, spirit, purse, and person is heroically devoted to this one purpose: wearing clothes wisely and well—so that while others dress to live, he lives to dress.” This is how Thomas Carlyle describes the dandy in his 1834 work Sartor Resartus —that well-dressed gentleman who made his first appearance on the streets of major cities in the early 19th century. His appearance became his very being; his existence, a work of art of his own creation. And, of course, a good wardrobe has always included a beautiful piece of jewellery—in the 19th century just as it does today. But since most pieces of jewellery are reserved for women—often much to the chagrin of those gentlemen who appreciate a bit of shine and sparkle—we are particularly pleased to present a men’s ring here. The ring was crafted around the turn of the millennium. Made of 750 yellow gold, this modern men’s ring features a natural emerald-cut sapphire weighing c. 2.20 carats. The stone is dark blue and has very few inclusions, with very good transparency. The flush setting, in which the gemstone is embedded in the polished gold, visually blends the gemstone and gold into a single, seamless surface. No ornament distracts from its impact—resulting in a ring of timeless elegance. The ring is in very good condition and came to us here in Berlin.
