For sale a beautiful French made, 18K gold tank ring, which transports you to the glamorous era of the 1940s.

This chic ring encapsulates the essence of an eternity motif, accentuated by two resplendent emeralds framed by a series of captivating rose-cut diamonds. The emeralds, each weight approximately 0.25 carats, radiating a mesmerizing, vivid green hue that captivates the beholder.

The diamond frame, meticulously designed in the rose-cut style, elegantly encircles the emeralds, offering a stark contrast with its brilliant white sparkle against the vibrant green of the emeralds.

The name "Tank Ring" pays homage to the post-war period and its transformative influence on jewelry design. In the wake of World War II, jewelry styles shifted to accommodate the changing roles of women. The name draws its inspiration from the resilient spirit of the times, symbolizing the women who adopted a more assertive, powerful, and masculine style – tailored suits and military-inspired attire – as they took on significant roles in industries, commerce, and offices, filling the positions vacated by men at war.

As a historical artifact, this ring serves as a testament to the increasing empowerment of women during and after World War II. It stands not only as a magnificent piece of jewelry but also as a symbol of the indomitable strength and influence of women in a time of transformation.

The ring is resizable at buyer’s cost, please contact us before you pass your order.
