Art Deco 14ct White Gold Diamond Reversible Cameo Flip Ring

1900 - 1920
Sold 25 August 2024 · Corvidae Antique
This “Art Deco 14ct White Gold Diamond Reversible Cameo Flip Ring” found a buyer.

It was listed by Corvidae Antique. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

This fantastic Art Deco ring in 14-carat white gold is two for the price of one! One side is black onyx, with a diamond set at the centre of a concave oval facet, while the other is a rather fabulous lady carved in shell with a diamond necklace - a "habillé" cameo, where the portrait is "dressed" with jewellery.

The swivel mechanism is simple and effective and in good working order - the central plaque turns on a vertical pivot when you press gently on one side and clicks into place so it doesn't move about.

In excellent vintage condition.

There are no hallmarks (the back of the ring is worn smooth so it's possible it was originally here) but the ring tests as 14 carat gold.

Size: M (UK), approx 6 and a quarter (US).

The face of the ring measures approximately 1.3 x 2.1cm and the face of the ring sits around 7mm above the finger.

Weight: 5.2g.

FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING!

Please note antique boxes pictured are not included unless specified, your item will come in a new box.

Art Deco jewellery, prominent during the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by geometric symmetry, stylised motifs, clean lines, and a heavy emphasis on platinum, white gold, diamonds, and contrasting gemstones like onyx.

These pieces typically utilised 14ct or 18ct white gold, platinum, hand-carved shell cameos, natural black onyx, and small single or old European cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces feature period-appropriate hand-carving techniques, subtle patination, traditional milled or milgrain edges, and mechanical pivoting hinges that show honest signs of historical wear rather than modern cast-casting.

A versatile convertible ring serves as an exceptional focal point when worn alone on the hand, complementing both minimalist tailoring and evening attire by allowing the wearer to switch between two distinct faces.

Rings with shell cameos and soft stones like onyx should never be cleaned in ultrasonic machines or exposed to harsh chemical dips; instead, use a soft, damp cloth and store them in a lined jewellery box to prevent surface scratching.
