MARY KRETSINGER 18K GOLD, ENAMEL & RED STONE RING

 

 

This amazing ring is pictured in my book, Form & Function, American Modernist Jewelry, 1940 - 1970, on page 158; it is 18K gold, hammered and built-up with granulation--designs that speak of water, sea and sand; the enameled portion pictures a young girl with a bucket on a sunny day at the beach, two red fish swim (perhaps from the bucket) and there are waves and reflections of the sun--a truly beautiful scene to wear!  There is a bezel-set red stone cabochon--perhaps garnet on one of the protruding sections; the ring is about size seven, total width across is approximately 2-1/2" and the height (top to bottom) is about 1-1/8"; marked: "MK, 18K;" 21.2 dwt.; excellent condition.
