Sapphires once adorned the rings of bishops, as they were thought to ward off guile and falsehood. From this, the idea of the sapphire as the stone of faithfulness, truth and loyalty developed in the gemstone language of the 19th century, which was still widely used at the time the ring was created. As late as 1913, the famous gemologist George Kunz wrote that the blue sapphire was a symbol of honest and enduring affection. One such stone, a dark blue sapphire, oval-cut and faceted, occupies the center of this gold and platinum ring. Twelve old-cut white diamonds with a total weight of more than one carat are set in a fine frame and on the ring shoulders, enriching the piece of jewelry with their gentle sparkle. The display side is formed from a delicate platinum Top, while the ring itself is forged from gold. The ring is a classic entourage ring from around 1910 and is also suitable for everyday wear thanks to its flat finish. It came to us from Lower Saxony and is in very good condition.
