Provenance

Original to c.1920, this sweet Art Deco ring is set to centre with a natural blue sapphire with a rich depth of colour. It is appropriately rectangular-shaped and step-cut, surrounded by a gold rub-over setting. Surrounding it, twelve old-mine cut diamonds which twinkle beautifully, each one distinct with its own character and charm - they call to mind stars twinkling against a deep midnight blue sky. The diamonds are grain and rub-over set, bordered by millegrain edging, it follows a foliate outline. This ring was made in c.1920, which we can tell as it lies at an intersection between the delicate ideals of the Edwardian aesthetic and the geometric clean lines of the roaring 20s.
