Carmen Beckmann Mexican silver Etruscan style Ring
Possibly my most favorite Carmen Beckmann ring design (an example lives in my jewelry box), her Etruscan style domed creation presented here is an ode to wire-work and micro-beading. It rises regally above the finger yet because of all those curved, glistening surfaces, it never creates problems to the wearer like most rings that are so high do. And though its “stature” is by itself impressive, it is all those nooks and crannies among the profusion of design elements coming together here that adds drama and intense sculpturality. Definitely a statement ring and such a fun piece to wear…
Size / Weight: sz 6 US (easily resizable by a jeweler); face is 1” in diameter; 5/8” rise; 18.4 grams
Hallmarks / Date: maker’s signature as shown as well as “STERLING” and “MEXICO”; 1950s-60s
Condition: excellent vintage, stunningly beautiful and unabashedly eye-catching, with fantastic patina and no damage or repairs noted
Inv# 15390
