FAQs

Tank rings originated in France during the 1940s, characterised by bulky, volumetric designs inspired by military machinery and vehicles of the Second World War.

These pieces were typically crafted from yellow, rose, or white gold, often combining calibre-cut or bezel-set gemstones such as sapphires, rubies, and old European-cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces feature architectural, high-profile silhouettes, heavy gold construction, and often bear period-specific French hallmarks or makers marks.

A tank ring makes a strong statement on its own, pairing well with minimalist tailoring or stacked alongside sleek, contemporary gold bands for contrast.

Clean gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh ultrasonic cleaners which can damage antique settings and natural gemstones.
