About this ring

Stunning! An inventive jeweler crowned this Art Nouveau ring with an exquisite piece by one of the renowned medallists of the time, Emile Dropsy. It depicts an elegant woman in profile, hair upswept and adorned en habille (French for 'dressed') with a diamond choker. In her hands, she holds bouquets of irises, while a few of the blooms decorate the lower left. A lacy openwork undergallery adds finishing detail. Usually suspended from a chain to adorn the neckline, this imaginative use of a medallion makes this ring a rare and remarkable treasure. Rendered in 18K gold (medallion) and 14K gold (ring shank and base). Hand engraved. Currently ring size 6 1/2.
