Alle Auktionen / Schmuck und Edelsteine / Victorian Ring with Blush Pink Hardstone Cameo and Diamonds in Gold, c. 1880
In the 19th century, classical antiquity was as alluring as ever. Even the most famous form of jewellery from antiquity, the cameo, was revived: rings, brooches and necklaces were adorned with cameos in a central position instead of diamonds and gemstones. This ring was also created in the course of this fashion – but interprets the cameo in a very contemporary way. Carved in hardstone on a white, rose-colored background, we see a young, Greek-style woman turning her classical profile towards us. The cameo is held by delicate, finely tapered gold claws. On the outside, a sparkling yet restrained frame of rose-cut diamonds, set à jour, frames the portrait. But who is the depicted woman? The gods of antiquity were a popular subject for 19th century cameo cutters, but over time cameos began to depict the idea of antiquity rather than distinct personalities – so no specific goddess was depicted at all. Without attributes, our unknown beauty thus becomes a symbol of classical beauty. The fine, antique ring is very well preserved. We were able to discover it in London. A piece of jewellery of subtle, yet all the more compelling beauty, which captivates not through heavy gemstones, but through the delicacy of its execution and the soft, painterly color palette.
