Timeless "Half-Memory" Ring with Seven Diamonds in White Gold, Germany c. 2000

Rings set with a whole range of sparkling gemstones were already very popular in the late 19th century. Numerous examples with three, five or seven stones have been preserved from the Victorian era, mostly set in heavy, warm, shiny yellow gold. Such rings were often worn side by side. In English-speaking countries, they are referred to as "half hoop rings", as about half of them are set with precious stones. The term "half-memory" is also common, as the usual memory ring is set with gemstones all the way around. This ring shows the enduring popularity of this shape in a timeless design from around 2000. Seven fine diamonds form an elegant, continuous row and are set in 14-karat white gold. Together, the diamonds weigh 1.52 carats, as revealed by a small hallmark inside the ring band. As all the stones are the same size, the ring is reminiscent of a classic memory ring when worn. The bright white gold additionally enhances the radiant light of the diamonds and gives the piece of jewellery a clear, elegant effect. The ring is a timeless classic. It came to us from a distinguished Munich estate.
