Platinum ring with sapphire and diamond 950>Vintage Jewellery Sale

An elegant ring featuring a large central diamond surrounded by calibre-cut sapphires. Made of platinum, this ring reflects the sophisticated Art Deco style of the 1920s.

Synthetic rubies and sapphires, introduced in 1873, soon found their way into Art Deco designs, where their perfect uniformity opened the way for brilliant geometric jewellery. These stones made it possible to create jewellery with machine precision that exuded unparalleled elegance.

The name Art Deco reminds us of the legendary Paris exhibition of 1925, which celebrated the sophisticated geometric style that followed World War I. Women embraced the flapper lifestyle and welcomed a new freedom in fashion and self-expression. The lavish jewellery and looser clothes were a celebration after the austerity of the war years, bringing a sparkle of joy to a time of renewed glamour.

This ring is contemporary but faithfully made in the Art Deco style; even the back of the ring is intricately detailed.
