MAGNIFICENT GEORGIAN
DIAMOND 18 CARAT & ENAMEL FIRMAMENT RING c.1798.
(Ref:4476).
An Extremely Rare and Gorgeous
Georgian ‘Firmament’ Ring set with seven (Lucky) large Rose-cut
Diamonds.
These sparkling Georgian Diamonds have been hand-cut by a skilled
craftsman at the end of the 18th century, just after the
French Revolution and some years before the seismic changes of the
Napoleonic Wars.
This is a ‘bague de Firmament’ or Firmament Ring and was made in
France during this difficult period of their history.
It may have belonged to a member of the aristocracy of the time who lost
their life under the guillotine.
It may have been smuggled out of France by an émigré into England at
that time.
The Firmament is the Sky or Heaven. The deep Royal Blue Enamel of the
ring represents the sky at night, and the scintillating Diamonds
represent the twinkling stars. It is associated with magical powers, and
reminds the wearer of the human link to Nature and/or God.
Firmament Rings were started about 1775 by an English enameller who
perfected the smooth enamel technique.
The eldest daughter of King George III was gifted with one in 1788 by
her brother & that set off the fad... They were called "rings
of the sky" for stars in the night sky.
They were later copied by the French, and produced for the wealthiest
gentry of fashionable Paris, up to around 1820.
This one dates c. 1798. (210-220 years old).
This is the first that we have come across in over 40 years of trading.
So it is extremely Rare.
The Quality is Superb. The Diamonds have been expertly hand-cut (rose
shape) and have great presence and sparkle.
The center Diamond is oval in shape and measures approx. One Carat. The
Six Diamonds that surround it are graduated, each one ¼ carat or
more.
That makes over 2 ¼ Carats of Rare Georgian Diamonds.
They are firmly claw-set in Silver, with a background of deep
translucent and radiant Royal Blue Enamel. There is a line of white
enamel around the edge, as a frame. (possibly representing the sky
during the day?).
The mount is insubstantial
18 carat Gold and is smoothly concave at the back to fit comfortably and
intelligently onto the finger.
The shank is a double band of 18 carat yellow Gold.
This Stunning Ring is in Excellent Condition.
The Ring size is P (UK) and 8(USA),
and it could be re-sized by a careful working Jeweller.
