The moon shines brightly in the cloudless sky above the Fitzgeralds’ garden. The gramophone plays the latest hits from Broadway, and elegant young women in long, slim dresses and men in black tuxedos stand together, dancing, laughing, and sipping their cocktails. Waiters are just bringing out small portions of lobster Thermidor as appetizers, refilling glasses with chilled champagne from the new refrigerators, and the countless stars above the New York countryside are sparkling as if in a competition. Then, at last, the hostess makes her entrance. To mark the occasion, she is dressed in a white gown, adorned with minimal yet exquisite jewellery: a dreamlike necklace and a radiant ring, a blaze of green light and brilliance, as modern as the times and exquisitely tasteful—just like everything around her. The party guests marvel, gaze, and a general murmur eventually swells into applause and a collective cry: “Hurrah! Welcome!” All these emotions of the roaring 1920s seem to be captured in this extraordinary ring. Set in the center of chatons, an old-cut diamond weighing approximately 0.69 ct sparkles. It is raised slightly above the ring face, allowing it to perfectly capture the incoming light. Twelve smaller diamonds in settings adorned with milgrains are spread across the front of the ring and sparkle in curved settings. As highlights, four bright green emeralds are set into the ring, surprising the eye with their faceted cuts. Based on its design and hallmarks, the ring was most likely manufactured in the United States. We discovered it here in Berlin.
