Todas las subastas / Joyería & gemas / Elegant Ballerina Ring With Natural Ruby & Diamonds, USA, 1960s


In the 1960s, a new form of the classic entourage ring emerged, that is, the ring shape in which a large central stone is framed by a halo of diamonds. These new rings were called ballerina rings, because the surrounding diamonds were not round brilliant cut diamonds, but rectangular baguette cut diamonds. In their arrangement, they were reminiscent of the folds of a fanned-out tutu seen from above: as if one were looking out of an opera box at the ballerinas, as Degas was so fond of painting them, for example in the painting L'Étoile from 1878. We also have such a ring here, which was made in the United States. On an airy gallery of white gold bars sits a halo of trapezoidal diamonds, dynamically offset in height. Four brilliant cut diamonds are set between them, accentuating the cross-shaped arrangement. The diamonds used here are of exquisite quality with very beautiful clarity and shine in brilliant white. The centre of the ring, however, is a high-quality ruby weighing approximately 2.00 ct, whose fiery red colour is subtly graded by the facets. The ruby is a natural gemstone: this is not a matter of course, because for more than a century, so-called Verneuil syntheses have been produced, i.e. artificial rubies that have been created in the laboratory. However, the fact that this ruby was created in a natural way is also proven by an independent laboratory certificate. Thus, it is not only a decorative centerpiece of a precious ring, but also a valuable investment. In the midst of the playful yet graphic ballerina setting, the precious gemstone is shown off to its best advantage.
