Lot no. 40
ATYPICAL ROPE STYLE
1960s ball ring in 18k (750 thousandths) yellow gold set with diamonds and rope-style twisted filigree fringes.
Finger size: 44
Gross weight: 12.4 g.
Atypical! That's how to describe this ring. The use of twisted wire in rope style was well known in the 1960s. Rings, bracelets, necklaces, nothing escaped the perfect arrangement of gold wires worked and skilfully juxtaposed. But giving a hairy appearance by shortening engraved wires and soldering them together perfectly is out of the ordinary. There's no doubt that lovers of jewellery from this period will succumb to the jewellery mastery of this fine example!
