About the Item

We are thrilled to share the marvel of this authentic antique yellow gold ring of high carat gold, as it's the most literal timestamp possible for the year 1692. With many decades of dealing in antique jewellery on a daily basis, we can consider that it's extremely rare to come across jewellery of such an old age and -on top of that- with hallmarks. How remarkable it is that the ring clearly bears the hallmarks for Amsterdam and the year letter F for the year 1692. To come along Dutch 17th Century jewellery that is so clearly hallmarked is extremely rare! As an extra mark of the baroque period in which this unique ring came to be, its excentic design consists of a drop shaped rose cut garnet top with a filigree aura and a ring shank covered with gold lozenges alternating with gold flower granules. Once, this ring may have been crafted as part of a person's history, but now each person it touches actually becomes part of the ring's own chronicle. What an extraordinary experience to be part of something before and beyond yourself.

Country of origin: Amsterdam, Netherlands Style: Baroque - Baroque is an artistic style prevalent from the late 16th century to the early 18th century in Europe. It is most often defined as "the dominant style of art in Europe between the Mannerist and Rococo eras, a style characterized by dynamic movement, overt emotion and self-confident rhetoric". Style specifics: Baroque is a style in art and decoration that developed shortly before 1600 and remained current in Europe until the emergence of the Rococo style c.1730. It was started in Italy, and spread to Germany, Austria, the Low Countries, and Spain and Portugal, with only a somewhat severely classical version being popular in France under Louis XIV. The style was a development of the Renaissance style and is characterized by lively, curved, and exuberant forms, by vigorous movement, and by rich ornament, based on classical sources, being symmetrical as distinguished from the asymmetry of the following Rococo style. Period: exactly 1692 ! Material: high carat (18K+) yellow gold Technique: Granulation is a technique where the goldsmith uses very small balls (granules) of metal, which are not soldered to the piece but welded. This technique demand very high skills and precision from the maker. And filigree (formerly written filigrann or filigrane) which is a delicate kind of jewel work made with twisted threads usually of gold and silver or stitching of the same curving motifs. It often suggests lace and French from 1660 to the late 19th century. It should not be confused with ajoure jewellery work; while both have many open areas, filigree involves threads being soldered together to form an object and ajoure involves holes being punched, drilled, or cut through an existing piece of metal. Extra information: Although antique jewellery is our business, it rarely happens that we run into a piece of jewellery that is so well hallmarked as this one. And not only does it bare clearly recognisable hallmarks it's also of an age and high quality that we hardly ever have! Precious stones: One garnet Birthstones: Garnet is the birthstone (or month stone) for January. More background information on the hallmarks: These hallmarks can be found in "Merken van Amsterdamse Goud- en Zilversmeden" (hallmarks of Amsterdam gold- and silver smiths) By Elias Voet JR 1912. See our pictures for the various books we have on this subject. Hallmarks: Clearly recognisable hallmarks for Amsterdam and the year letter F for the year 1692. The mastermark is not clear enough to find out who the maker was of this ring. See also the picture we took of the hallmarks at the inside of the shank.
