Antique Art Deco/Retro Era 9ct White Gold Carved Coral Ring Circa 1930s-40s
Please note, boxes are for display only unless otherwise stated.
This exquisite antique Art Deco 9-carat white gold carved coral ring, dating from the 1930s-1940’s, is a rare and captivating piece that perfectly captures the elegance and creativity of its era.
At its centre sits a beautifully carved square Coral panel, measuring approximately 1.2 cm by 1.2 cm, intricately detailed with what we believe is a laurel motif—a timeless symbol of victory and renewal. The carving is wonderfully crisp and in perfect condition, showcasing the artisan skill that defined the Art Deco period.
The Coral’s deep, rich orange-red hue glows warmly against the cool sheen of white gold, creating a striking contrast that feels both bold and refined.
The Coral is securely claw-set, framed by sculptural stepped shoulders that descend gracefully into a slightly low-rise gallery. The upswept shoulders lead into a smooth, flat shank, ensuring a comfortable, finger-hugging fit.
Every element of the design reflects the geometric precision and architectural beauty characteristic of the Art Deco movement.
This ring is not only elegant and distinctive, but also highly unusual—a piece you won’t see on everyone else’s finger. Its combination of crisp white gold and vivid natural coral makes it a true statement of individuality and vintage sophistication.
A stunning piece of wearable history, this carved coral Art Deco-Retro ring is as enchanting today as it was a century ago.
