“Art Deco” was an era marked by extravagance and innovation. The Art Deco style itself was an eclectic mix of heavy geometric shapes, with curved ornamental elements. The resulting silhouettes were often monolithic but elegant, with applied decorative elements.

This Moonstone and Sapphire Edwardian Conversion Ring is a wonderful example of this iconic Art Deco style. Crafted in 20 carat white gold, this ring immediately captures the gaze with its dazzling array of miniature pearls and sapphire stones haloing a truly luminescent cabochon moonstone. 

What makes this treasure particularly special is that it is a conversion piece; the beautiful moonstone center was once part of an antique brooch. Now, with the use of a 14 carat gold replica shank, it has been transformed into the glorious ring we bring you today. Note the vivid accents the sapphires and pearls give to the moonstone – it’s almost as if someone has charted your fate in the stars!

With its stunning silhouette and masterful design, this ring is a piece you’re certain to pick up again and again!
