Ring of Gold, Diamonds and a Single Sapphire, 1975 The Victoria & Albert Museum |
This ring is more modern than those which I usually write about, but it combines
traditional, precious materials and sensibilities with the bold, abstract
designs which were fashionable in the 1970s. This is among the many interesting jewels made
in Europe in the 1960s and 1970s which honored the traditions of their predecessors
but remained true to their own styles.
Curiously, though the ring dates to 1975 and was made in Germany, we’re
not sure who the designer was as the maker’s mark is unidentifiable.
