Description

A MUSEAL NEORENAISSANCE ENAMEL AND GOLD RING ca. 1890 RM 65 ct yellow gold. Opaque enamel in turquoise, red, white and black. The rail with decorative friezes around the sides, openwork scrollwork with ball finials on the sides, the head in the shape of a canopy with lateral fluting and scrollwork on the edges, a lengthwise rectangular, faceted emerald raised in a slightly curved setting. The underside elaborately designed with a cross motif. Approx. 20.0g. In very fine condition with minimal signs of wear, the enamel minimally lost. South German private collection, acquired from Albrecht Neuhaus. Literature: Erich Steingräber: Old Jewelry, Munich 1958. For the type, see p. 130, Fig. 227. Yvonne Hackenbroch: Renaissance Jewellery, Munich 1979. For the type, compare Figs. 451 - 458. The present ring is an impressive example of the great artistry of historic goldsmiths. A Renaissance ring that was intended for court use certainly served as a model. Such as the Renaissance rings in the Bavarian National Museum in Munich, which came from the treasury of the Count Palatine of Zweibrücken. One of the most impressive goldsmiths of the late 19th century was Reinhold Vaster in Aachen. He made goldsmith's work with enamel to perfection. Some of his works were so convincing that they were often purchased as originals by many well-known museums. A large collection of jewelry from Vasters' workshop, as well as several design drawings, are now in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
