A striking and highly unusual Art Deco ring made in Poland during the 1920’s; a period marked by bold experimentation in jewellery design as Poland regained independence after 123 years of partitions. The re-establishment of a national goldsmithing tradition created a brief but remarkable flowering of artistic production; pieces from this era often show exceptional craftsmanship in small workshops, made for an emerging modern, urban clientele. This ring is a perfect example of such refined, individualistic work.At its centre sits an extraordinary amethyst of approx 6cts, cut in a highly uncommon angular, shield-like faceted shape; this distinctive geometry is very much in keeping with the avant-garde tendencies of the mid-1920s, when jewellers embraced sharp lines and architectural silhouettes. The gemstone displays a cool, saturated purple with excellent clarity, and is held in a smooth white-gold bezel that frames the stone beautifully.The shoulders are set with small round diamonds in millegrain-beaded settings; a classic detail of the period that adds precision and sparkle without interrupting the bold central form. The gallery is wonderfully open and architectural; again, characteristic of the Art Deco period and intended to maximise the play of light through the amethyst.Hallmarked with the Polish knight’s head and the number 3, indicating 583 fineness (14K white gold) used between 1920–1931; the maker’s mark depicts a fish.A rare and elegant jewel; the unusual gemstone cut, combined with its clear Art Deco lines and Polish origin, make it a particularly special survivor from this short, fascinating era of design.The ring measures UK size L½ ; US size 6. It has a weight of 4.2 grams.A rare and beautifully crafted Art Deco ring; unusually cut, historically interesting, and visually arresting.
