14ct rose and yellow gold Art Nouveau ring featuring a cabochon sapphire, 5mm garnet and two rose-cut diamonds.

| /

An exquisite whisper of turn-of-the-century elegance, this Russian Art Nouveau ring dates to circa 1910 and carries the distinctive 56 zolotnik mark — a guaranteed hallmark of fine Russian 14ct work. Crafted in a harmonious blend of rose and yellow 14ct gold, the design is the very essence of Art Nouveau: sinuous botanical lines, delicate asymmetry and a poetry of movement that seems to grow from the finger.

Exquisite Gemstones

At the heart of the composition hangs a luminous cabochon sapphire, its deep blue glow set in a gently polished bezel that swings with the wearer’s movement — a tiny talisman of night-sky depth. Above it, a vivid triangular-cut garnet blossoms like a tiny jewel-flower, its warm, pomegranate-red tones offset perfectly by two sparkling rose cut diamonds set in fine claws. The diamonds catch the light with an old-world softness unique to rose cuts, adding vintage sparkle without overpowering the subtlety of the design.

Art Nouveau Design

The ring’s gold work is superbly considered: the warm blush of rose gold complements the garnet and diamonds, while yellow gold highlights the engraved foliate motif, giving the piece a layered, textural richness. The flowing scrolls and leaf-like forms are rendered with artisan finesse, creating an organic silhouette typical of the era’s celebration of nature and handcraft. The result is at once delicate and charismatic — a miniature sculptural composition you can wear every day or save for moments when you want to feel particularly special.

Imperial-Era Russia

For collectors, this ring is a rare example of Russian Art Nouveau jewellery in original, wearable condition. For the lover of antique style, it is an intimate piece of history that brings a century of romance into the present. Whether you prize it for its maker’s mark, its period charm or simply the irresistible way the stones converse with the light, this ring is a singular treasure.
