 Expert opinion

This ring has been assessed by our in-house gemmologists:

The rubies are most likely to be from the old Burmese mines.

 Comments

While Europe faced a period of rationing and austerity in the post-war years, the United States in contrast was experiencing growth and extravagance, as they fast became the biggest consumer of high-end jewellery. The 50s and 60s are frequently characterised by eclectic creations influenced by Hollywood-inspired pastiches of bygone eras, as shown in this striking J.E. Caldwell ring.
