Platinum Ring with Diamonds and Rubies, 1950s

PLATINUM RING WITH RUBIES AND DIAMONDS – HIGH JEWELRY AMERICAN 1950s A ring of extraordinary presence, from the high American jewelry of the post-war period, when luxury was expressed through generous volumes, scenographic compositions, and impeccable technical skill. The setting, entirely made of Platinum, is conceived as a perfectly proportioned three-dimensional flower, rich but harmonious, capable of capturing light from every angle. The structure is solid and elegant, designed to support a composition of great presence, without sacrificing visual balance and comfort. At the center dominates a flower of natural brilliant-cut Diamonds, set with extreme precision in raised and close-set bezels. This arrangement creates a continuous and sparkling surface, similar to a luminous dome, typical of the most important creations of the 1950s. Around the central heart develops a crown of natural oval-cut Rubies, carefully selected for chromatic uniformity and saturation. Their deep and velvety red color frames the central Diamonds with a decisive and iconic contrast, emphasizing the floral design and giving the ring an intense and sophisticated character. Completing the composition, an outer band of brilliant-cut Diamonds follows the profile of the flower with a refined petal motif. The thin and dense claws, finely worked, resemble a delicate lace of light and contribute to enhancing the three-dimensionality of the setting, making the ring visually rich but never excessive. The back of the ring reveals an elaborate openwork, typical of high-end American production from the 1950s. This workmanship is not only decorative but functional, lightening the structure, promoting the passage of light through the stones, and ensuring a comfortable fit despite the significant size of the jewel.
