Alla auktioner / Smycken & ädelstenar / Exquisite Antique Marquise Ring With Ruby & Diamonds In Gold, Circa 1890
Whether marquise, navette or boat ring - all these names refer to a characteristic, pointed oval ring shape, which this ring also has. Already popular in the 19th century, it was worn until the Art Deco period. But why "marquise"? The story goes that the name for this shape was first used in the Rococo period. Louis XV is said to have commissioned a gemstone cutter to invent a cut that reminded him of the smile of his mistress, the beautiful and influential Marquise de Pompadour. At the center of this ring is a glowing red ruby, which, like the origin of the shape, has a romantic connotation. Even in the 19th century, this gemstone was seen as having a connection to love. "Rubies are particularly suitable for young lovers [...] It is generally regarded as the symbol of the most passionate and ardent love," wrote the ladies' journal Bazar in November 1886. Here, the red gemstone is surrounded by 28 old-cut diamonds totalling around 0.90 ct, which further enhance its color. The ring was created in the years around 1890, when such rings were booming. It is in excellent condition and is both a wearable collector's item and a love gift with rich references to the history of jewellery.
