Art Moderne Ruby 18 Karat Gold Tank Ring

About the Item

A French 18 carat gold ring in the architectural Retro style set with 18 square cut rubies totalling approximately 0.70 carats in a ‘bridge’ design. The curve of the bridge section is interrupted by arching gold forms which continue down to form the shank of the ring. The rubies are of synthetic origin, meaning that they possess all the attributes of a natural ruby, but were created by man. This means that there is perfect colour balance between each stone – something that is very difficult to achieve with natural stones. Stamped with the eagle’s head for 18 carat gold and French manufacture. No makers mark is visible. Made circa 1940. Ring size: Q (8.25 US), but may be resized. Weight: 9.23 grams Wear commensurate with age.

  • French Vintage Diamond and Ruby 18K Gold Tank Ring
    Located in Versailles, FR
    For sale a typical tank ring from the 1940s, marked by its massive use of 18K yellow gold, geometric motifs combined with a line of 6 rose cut diamonds closely set in the middle of two lines of purplish red rubies cut in baguettes.The quality of the workmanship is very good: the lines are clean and straight; the angles on each side are equal; and the design is well balanced. The diamond weights circa 0.4ct in total. The rubies are probably synthetic like many rubies used in the jewelry of this type. For the second time in the century, the outbreak of war changed again the style of the jewelry making in the 1940s. Bold, massive jewels were made to suit the outlook of the women during the war: masculine, well-tailored suits of military inspirations since women took up the jobs left vacant by men, whether in industry, in commerce or in offices. This ring is also a historical piece as a prove of the increasing women’s power...
