About the Item

This 18 Karat white gold ring from W.A. Bolin features carré cut rubies, total approx. 0,69 ctw, and additional brilliant cut high quality diamonds, a total of approx. 1,07 ctw, quality Top Wesselton (F-G)/VVS-VS Not many companies have been owned by the same family for 226 years. WA Bolin has been court jewelers for five Russian tsars since 1796 and three Swedish kings since 1916. Being a Swedish appointed court jeweler means that W.A. Bolin has the Swedish royal house and the court as customers and is hired for example for the repair and maintenance of the state jewelry used for celebrations such as Nobel festivities and royal dinners. Bolin created the engagement ring worn by Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden prior to her 2010 wedding with Prince Daniel. The Bolin jewelry firm was originally founded under the name Römpler, after German-born Andreas Römpler, the ‘Master of Diamonds’. After Römpler died in 1829, his son-in-law Gottlieb Ernst Jahn assumed management of the firm. In 1833, the Swedish-born Carl Edvard Bolin moved from Stockholm to St Petersburg and began working with Jahn at Römpler. He married the late Römpler’s daughter Ernestine a year later and, when his brother-in-law died the following year, took over the business, renamed it ‘Bolin’ and enlisted the help of his brother Henrik Conrad. Carl Edvard was honoured with the title of Jeweler to the Imperial Court only four years later in 1839 and maintained this title until his death in 1864. The firm’s popularity continued to soared in subsequent years, allowing Henrik Conrad to open a shop in Moscow in 1852 which he ran in partnership with Englishman James Stuart Shanks. However, after Henrik Conrad’s death, Shanks established his own separate firm. At this point, Henrik Conrad’s son Wilhelm James Andreevich Bolin oversaw the Moscow branch of the firm and sought help from his cousins Edvard and Gustav in the running of the new St Petersburg branch C.E. Bolin. Production under Wilhelm was predominantly in the Art Nouveau style that was becoming increasingly popular in Russia at the time. In particular, the firm produced fine glass (Lalique) and crystal as well as silver-mounted ceramics. By the start of the twentieth-century, Bolin was one of the most important Russian jewelers alongside Fabergé and Hahn. In 1912, Wilhelm took exclusive control of the Moscow branch, naming it W.A. Bolin, and also became the official supplier of the Imperial Court (a title which he kept until the end of 1916). In that same year, the Bolin brothers were each awarded with hereditary nobility and the accompanying right to a coat-of-arms as gratitude for their services to the state. Sadly, the Russian Revolution saw the closure of the company, and much of its stock and account books were seized by the Bolsheviks. Bolin’s customers were even tracked down and had their items confiscated. Fortunately, Wilhelm succeeded in smuggling a portion of the stock to Germany, re-establishing the company in Sweden and earning the title of Court Jeweler to the Swedish King Gustav V. Today, the firm continues to exist in Stockholm and serves the current monarch of Sweden, King Carl XVI Gustav and his family. The company today focuses on the traditional core business as a jeweler with production in its own workshop. They still maintain shop and workshop in the same premises as it provides the opportunity to continue to maintain both quality and a high level of service.

1960s Emerald and Diamond "Starburst" cluster ring

Located in Malmö, Skåne län

With the prosperity that came after the war, consumers were ready for something new. “Atomic Age”, the period roughly corresponding to 1940–1963, inspired nearly every aspect of Mid-Century design, and jewelry was no exception. The design is characterized by references and responses to the space race. A time of great promise of technological solutions for the problems facing an increasingly complex world. The launch of Sputnik in October 1957 marks a clear point of reference. This sweet diamond and emerald starburst cluster ring...
