Style
Vintage Retro - The style now called "Retro Art" is a genre which was developed in the 1940s and 1950s in response to a need for bold, eye-catching graphics and shapes that were easy to reproduce.

Style specifics
Retro Style is a recent designation for the period in the forties when large scale, stylized geometric forms, drapes, bows or ribbons were all the rage. Pink Gold, set with colored stones, sometimes in floral forms was common.

Period
ca. 1950

Material
18K bi-color (yellow and pink) gold (touchstone tested)

Precious stones
Five rubies (lab produced) (also called verneuil ruby). The fact that these stones are lab produced has no influence on the value of this jewel. Natural rubies and lab produced rubies were both used in this era, rather more for their effect than for their intrinsic value.

Birthstones
Ruby is the birthstone (or month stone) for July.

Hallmarks
No trace.

diameter 3,00 cm (1,18 inch)
