When we think of Art Deco, the wild 1920s with their graphic patterns and acute-angled geometries usually come to mind. But as time progressed, the shapes of the jewellery also changed. From the 1930s onwards, the initially rather two-dimensional designs became much more physical and sculptural and a new form of Art Deco emerged, which is also known as "retro style" in English - and which remained popular until the 1950s. This ring is a representative of this style. It is made from white gold with a platinum front and is richly set with sparkling gemstones. A large Colombian emerald in an elongated step cut forms the highlight of the design. An oval wreath of octagonal diamonds frames the green stone. The arched shoulders are stepped in three stages and set with diamonds and, once, with calibré-cut emeralds. All of the elements appear to overlap, while floral sawing work in the undercut gives the design additional depth. This is precisely what makes the ring so appealing: It is a three-dimensional object and is also beautiful from the side views. We discovered the beautifully preserved ring here in Berlin. It was created in the 1940s.
