While the term ‘Art Nouveau’ brings us back to the turn of the 20th century, this design is building further and ends up at the turn of the 21st century. With the most important characteristics of the style are a dynamic, undulating and flowing, all of this can be found here. But there is more: this ring is much more styled in a contemporary way, with a lot of attention to the integration of the original characteristics into a simple line. No difficult curlings, no abstract elements of Rococo style, but all is purified and distilled into some essential forms that make the design.

The ring is made of Silver 925/000 and the gem is pure rock-crystal with needles of Tourmaline encapsulated.
