Exclusivité web – Non éligible au rendez-vous
This 18-carat gold ring from the Georgian era, dating from around 1780, is a magnificent example of craftsmanship, with its graceful filigree and delicate granulation. Its design features a rectangular plaque with soft curves, framed by fine filigree patterns and small granules, forming “spiders.” The openwork filigree band transforms into a twisted wire motif, adding texture and movement to the piece. Imagine wearing a ring of such quality, made over 200 years ago—a timeless treasure that embodies both sophistication and art.

Style
Georgian – The Georgian style is the name given in most English-speaking countries to the collection of styles in vogue between 1720 and 1840. It is named after the first four British monarchs of the Maison of Hanover—George I of Great Britain, George II of Great Britain, George III of the United Kingdom, and George IV of the United Kingdom—who reigned in continuous succession from August 1714 to June 1830.

Technique
Granulation is a technique where the goldsmith uses very small metal beads (granules), which are not soldered to the piece, but fused. This technique requires exceptional skill and precision from the maker. Filigree (formerly filigrann or filigrane) is a type of delicate jewelry made with twisted wires, generally of gold and silver, or embroideries representing the same curved motifs. It often evokes lace and French jewelry from 1660 to the end of the 19th century. It should not be confused with openwork jewelry; although both feature many open areas, filigree consists of soldering wires together to form an object, while openwork involves piercing, drilling, or cutting holes in an existing piece of metal.
