Three Ball Ring. The Danish silversmith Georg Jensen opened his eponymous silversmithy in Copenhagen in the early 1900s, and quickly became a European byword for excellence in Silver craftsmanship and in Silver jewellery design, the latter focusing on motifs grounded in nature -leaves, flowers, organic shapes, dragonflies. These jewellery designs based on nature remained the mainstay of the output of Georg Jensen -and of all the Scandanavian silversmiths influenced by the success of Georg Jensen- for decades until everything was turned on its head by the catastrophe of WWII.
The post-war 1950s saw the emergence of Scandanavian modernism, and in the 1960s artists and craftsfolk such as the Swedish Torun definitely broke the mould.
The original of the above Three Ball ring was handcrafted in Denmark around the late 1960s, in Silver. A five ball version was also created. The 18ct Gold version shown here, handmade Sydney, is a tribute to this clever, clean, modern design.
The above 18ct Gold Three Ball ring is the second such Christopher W. creation; the first had its three solid 18ct Gold spheres rub-set with small white Diamonds.
Note: the above ring contains 7 grams of 18ct Gold, solid, not plated.
