Art Nouveau Baroque Pearl & 14K Gold Leaf Ring, circa 1910
This enchanting Art Nouveau ring, dating to circa 1910, embodies the graceful sensuality and organic beauty of the era. At its center rests a luminous baroque pearl, nestled within a fluid composition of sculpted 14K gold leaves that seem to grow naturally around the finger—an ode to the movement’s reverence for nature and form.
The face of the ring measures a striking 1.2 inches tall by 0.55 inches wide, giving it a graceful yet commanding vertical profile on the hand. The asymmetrical curves and rich texture of the goldwork frame the pearl in an almost botanical embrace, evoking the spirit of early 20th-century design houses such as Lalique and Mucha.
This rare and romantic jewel is in excellent condition and a fine example of wearable Art Nouveau sculpture. It is currently a size 6 and may be resized to fit for an additional fee.
Materials & Testing
The ring features a natural baroque pearl set in solid 14K gold. The gold has been professionally tested via X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis to confirm its purity. All components are believed to be original to the period and securely set.
