"One and one, that makes two, There's always a heart, And if you're lucky, it's two." You could almost be forgiven for thinking that this ring from around 1960 was inspired by these lines from Hildegard Knef's famous chanson. In an elegant juxtaposition, the ring presents two large, sparkling old-cut diamonds with a total weight of around 0.60 carats. Two swings, also set with smaller diamonds, hold the wonderfully sparkling gemstones, which are united for eternity as if in a moving pas de deux. The ring is made from yellow gold. The ring face and stone settings are inlaid with white gold. Its cool color in combination with the white diamonds gives the piece a festive look. The ring is a typical piece of jewellery from the post-war period, as its solid, solid workmanship reveals. Even if its design goes back to models from the c. 1900s, the use of a lot of precious metal is characteristic of jewellery from the 1950s and 1960s. The stones, however, are actually older than the ring itself. We can date them to c. 1900 based on their cuts. The workmanship of the ring, the beautiful materials and its romantic symbolism create a piece of jewellery that was probably designed as an engagement ring. We found this well-preserved ring from the west of Berlin.
