Description

A lovely original vintage Art Deco ring in solid silver studded with marcasites framing a beautiful vivid purple amethyst. There are many modern copies of this type of ring but this is the real deal, estimated to originate from continental Europe c.1930s.

SIZE: P (UK), 7 and a half (US). The face of the ring is approximately 2.2 x 1.5cm and the amethyst is approx 8 x 11mm.

WEIGHT: 3.0g.

MATERIALS: 935 silver, amethyst.

HALLMARKS/STAMPS: Marked "935" - a silver fineness higher than sterling silver (925). We most often see 935 on pieces from Germany, Austria and Switzerland c.1920s-40s.

CONDITION: There is minor overall wear, as you would expect to see in a piece of this age, and the amethyst is lightly abraded on the top facets when seen under magnification, but the ring is in very good vintage condition.

ERA: c.1920s-30s.

FAQs

Art Deco jewellery is characterised by geometric symmetry, stylised motifs, and the prominent use of contrasting gemstones and glittering marcasite set in silver.

These rings typically feature sterling silver settings encrusted with faceted marcasite crystals, centring on semi-precious stones such as amethyst, garnet, or paste.

Authentic pieces often exhibit individual prong settings for each marcasite stone rather than glue, aged metal patination, and period hallmark stamps on the inner band.

A statement cocktail ring serves as a focal point, pairing well with minimalist evening wear or adding a touch of period character to tailored daytime ensembles.

Pieces should be cleaned gently with a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners which can dislodge marcasite stones or damage softer gems like amethyst.
