Retro 18ct Gold & Platinum, Diamond Ring by Mauboussin, Paris

286W
200 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

Mauboussin is a French jewellery firm famous for its Art Deco and Retro jewellery. It’s roots go back to 1827 but the firm first gained international acclaim in the 1920s. Its rise into the ranks of Parisian fine jewellers is attributed to Georges Mauboussin, an enterprising and talented jeweller who entered his uncle’s firm, Noury, as an apprentice in 1877. Soon Mauboussin became a partner and in 1903, he became the sole proprietor.

In 1925, the firm won its first great breakthrough: a Grand Prize for jewellery at Paris’s Decorative Arts Exhibition.  The firm thereafter moved to 20 Place Vendôme, where its flagship store remains today.

This 18ct gold ring was made in the 1940s. It is an attractive design with a platinum set diamond eye motif in the centre with radiating bands of gold on either side. It is fully signed and numbered inside the shank.
