  • Hermes Paris Geometric H Logo Cocktail Ring in 18Kt Yellow Gold and Sterling
    By Hermès
    Located in Miami, FL
    H logo ring designed by Hermes. An sculptural bypass cocktail ring, designed in Paris France by the iconic luxury house of Hermes. This iconic piece is rare and very hard to find. Has been crafted in the shape of a stylized H in solid sterling silver .925/.999 and yellow gold of 18 karats with very high polished finish. History: This story began in 1938, when Robert Dumas, a member of the Hermès family, decided to take inspiration from a ship anchor chain to design a bracelet. Thus the Chaîne d'ancre was born: a naturally balanced jewel with a sporty yet chic allure. The historic legend of this jewelry line was between 1931 and 1938. It was during this approximate decade that Monsieur Dumas wandered around the seaside, a small sketch book in hand. In 1937, he logged a design for an anchor chain, a substitute for the colossal ones used on boats. Some time later, he sketched the idea for a clasp resembling a subtle mix between a Brandebourg and a Kabig breton. Except that no fabricant wanted to make a silver style, preferring in those days to work only with gold or platinum. And so he confided the creation of the mock version to a bold man by the name of De Perçin...
