Marie Zimmermann Gold Enamel Carnelian Intaglio Ring
About the Item
Much of Marie Zimmermann’s jewelry is institutionally owned, with the bulk belonging to the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Here is a rare example on the open market — a carnelian intaglio enamel and gold ring. Size 6.5, 7.1 dwt. In excellent condition. Pictured in the Marie Zimmerman monograph (The Jewelry and Metalwork of Marie Zimmerman/ Yale/ 2011) on page 191.
This ring was made by American Arts & Crafts jeweler Marie Zimmermann, whose work was admired and celebrated during her lifetime and continues to attract attention today. Born in Brooklyn in 1879 to an upper middle-class Swiss family, Zimmermann studied at the Arts Students League and refined her skills at the Pratt Institute. She was deeply inspired by the art of the past, often visiting the Metropolitan Museum where she frequented the Greek, Egyptian, and Far Eastern galleries. In 1901 she was invited to join the National Arts Club on Gramercy Park, whose members included such artistic luminaries as William Merritt Chase, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and Alfred Stieglitz. There she established her studio, and there she remained for the next twenty-five years. Although trained in painting and sculpting, she was primarily a metalworker, who liked to say she made “everything from tiaras to tombstones.” Her work was highly regarded throughout her career, as she diversified from her early work in jewelry into vases, tablewares, candlesticks, architectural elements and stained glass windows. She exhibited widely, and her work was discussed and illustrated in journals such as “The International Studio and House & Garden”. National recognition brought her commissions from wealthy clients, but she also made objects for her family and Friends.
