Vintage pearl ring: a treasure trove of history

Art Deco ring with pearl - The refinement of the Roaring Twenties

The 1920s and 1930s saw the creation of pieces of remarkable boldness and creativity. The Art Deco pearl ring, with its geometric lines and perfect balance between tradition and modernity, epitomised the golden age of jewellery. Houses such as Cartier, Boucheron and Van Cleef & Arpels created iconic pieces in which pearls interacted harmoniously with diamonds and precious stones.

Carefully selected by our team, these vintage treasures tell a story and bear the mark of their time. Meticulously restored in our Paris workshop, they are brought back to their original glory while retaining their authentic character.

Vintage pearl cocktail ring - Assumed extravagance

From the flamboyant era of the 50s and 60s, the vintage pearl cocktail ring is characterised by its generous volume and assertive presence. Often set on a baroque pearl this imposing piece, set with diamonds or coloured stones, embodies a joyful, theatrical luxury that will leave no one indifferent.

Signed Mellerio, Chaumet or David Webb, these exceptional pieces bear witness to a time when life was celebrated with exuberance, far from restraint.

Cultured pearl ring: Japanese excellence.

Akoya pearl ring - Spherical perfection

Born in Japanese waters, the Akoya pearl is renowned for its perfectly round shape, exceptional lustre and mother-of-pearl purity. Its size, generally between 6 and 8 mm, makes it the ideal candidate for rings of discreet yet assertive elegance.

The quality of an Akoya pearl is measured by its orientation, the brilliance that seems to emanate from within and the smoothness of its surface. These criteria, perfectly mastered by Julie Mialet, our certified gemologist, guide our selection so that we can offer you only the very best.

Pearl and diamond ring - The marriage of classics

The combination of pearls and diamonds creates a perfect harmony where the milky softness of the pearl is sublimated by the incomparable sparkle of the diamond. This timeless alliance is expressed in designs such as the toi et moi pearl and diamond ring, where two pearls face each other, separated or surrounded by a sparkling line of diamonds.

Contemporary creations by Mikimoto, Tasaki and Bucherer have reinterpreted this classic with a modern sensibility, creating jewellery that has stood the test of time.

Freshwater pearl ring - The pearl revolution

Freshwater pearls have revolutionised the world of jewellery, offering an unprecedented variety of shapes, colours and sizes. Cultivated mainly in China, these pearls have a more subtle orientation and slightly less regular surface than their marine cousins.

Far from being a flaw, this uniqueness provides contemporary designers such as Yoko London, Autore and Sophie Bille Brahe with the ideal raw material for bold, original creations.

Baroque pearl ring - In praise of imperfection

Pearl and sapphire ring - Depths of the sea

The irregular shape of Baroque pearls, with their organic curves and unique character, is now inspiring the most avant-garde designers. Once considered imperfect, these pearls are now celebrated for their singularity and assertive personality.

Combining a baroque pearl with a sapphire, for example in an antique pearl and sapphire ring, creates a fascinating chromatic dialogue between the deep blue of the stone and the iridescent reflections of the pearl, a subtle evocation of the mysteries of the ocean.

Pearl daisy ring - The Eternal Flower

Inspired by the classic floral motif, the Pearl Daisy ring typically features a central pearl surrounded by diamonds or other precious stones. This harmonious, balanced composition makes this design a perfect choice for special occasions or as an original engagement ring.

Chanel, Dior and Buccellati all offer contemporary interpretations of this classic model, combining tradition and modernity with a keen sense of detail and proportion.
