This very unusual ring was designed and made by Georges Fouquet in Paris in 1908. The slender shank bears a slightly convex navette-shaped ornament edged with rose-cut diamonds. In the centre is a design of stylized ears of wheat; gold stalks form a framework for shining blue enamel. Fouquet inlaid tiny pieces of silver foil in the enamel to create the shine and the iridescent blue typical of his work.   #artnouveau #artnouveauring #fouquet #diamonds #enamel I Love Jewelry, Amazing Jewelry, Jewelry Art, My Jewellery, Jewelry Accessories, Fine Jewelry, Jewelry Design, Bijoux Art Nouveau, Art Nouveau Ring

These ravishing gold pendant earrings were made around 1830. They are constructed from 18-carat gold scrolls and beads ingeniously intertwined.
