Art Nouveau 18 Karat Yellow Gold Sugarloaf Amethyst and Diamond Ring

About the Item

This Art Nouveau ring is crafted in the early 1900s from 18 karat yellow gold, its design quintessential of the era, which is known for its flowing, organic lines and incorporation of natural motifs. The ring features a centrally mounted sugarloaf cabochon amethyst, weighing approximately 4.5 carats. The amethyst's high, rounded dome and squared base are characteristic of the sugarloaf cut, which was popular during the period for its ability to showcase the depth of color and saturation in gemstones. Complimenting the amethyst are two diamonds, weighing a total of 0.08 carats, nestled within floral-inspired settings, a nod to the Art Nouveau movement's inspiration from nature. Historically, this ring represents the Art Nouveau period's break from the rigid designs of the Victorian era, favoring instead the sinuous lines and forms inspired by natural elements. The movement, which spanned from 1890 to 1910, sought to elevate jewelry to the realm of art. Pieces from this time were not merely accessories but were considered to be wearable works of art that integrated beauty, craftsmanship, and symbolic meaning. The use of amethyst in such a prominent piece would have been appreciated not just for its aesthetic appeal but also for its properties of calmness and clarity. Size: 5.25 Condition: In great antique condition with some minor scratches and signs of wear Amethyst Weight: 4.5 Carats Diamond Weight: 0.08 Carats Total Weight: 5.1 Grams 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee
