Story
Larter & Sons is one of the noted American jewelry designers and manufacturers located in Newark, New Jersey - home of some of the greatest jewelry factories in the United States during the Victorian era and early 20th century.
Renowned for an elegance of design and exquisite workmanship, this turn-of-the-20th century 14k yellow gold ring personifies what we have come to expect of a jewel in the manner and craft of Art Nouveau. A vibrantly colored garnet cabochon is asymmetrically set among the sensual petals of a dahlia or peony flower. Three-dimensional rendering of the botanical creates a languid and symbolically vulnerable mount of 14k yellow gold encompassing the very essence of the gem.
