AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

French antique ring in 18K yellow and white gold – diamonds – interlaced chain motif – maker's mark 117 & owl – circa 1920–1930
Magnificent French vintage ring from the 1910s–1930s (fin de Belle Époque / early Art Deco).
Metals: 18 carat gold (750/1000) yellow and white gold (or platinum for the light parts). Total weight: 5.17 g.
Stones: Several antique diamonds (rose cut or old mine cut) – a larger central diamond plus several small stones on the scrolls and side motifs. The diamonds are vintage and natural (untreated, typical of the period).
Design: Very decorative central motif of interlaced chains (large yellow-gold links forming a stylized “C” or clasp), surrounded by scrolls and leaves in white metal. An elegant and sculptural style highly representative of Parisian jewelry of the Jazz Age.
Hallmarks:
- Master mark 117 (Parisian jeweler at 117 Boulevard Richard-Lenoir, workshop active from 1919 – likely Germain or French Parisian).
- Owl hallmark (French guarantee for 18K gold on pieces that are tested or imported secondhand).
Condition: Good overall for a century-old piece, with a beautiful patina of the era. Minor wear on the prongs and the inside of the band (visible in photos).
This ring is a beautiful collector’s piece, worn as a cocktail ring or elegant jewelry. It perfectly blends the organic charm of the Belle Époque with the early geometric motifs of Art Deco.
