Ruby Ring by David Webb, 1.46 Carats

A cushion-cut ruby displays a deep crimson hue in this glittering ring from famed American jeweler David Webb. Surrounded by round and baguette diamonds totaling 1.80 carats, the jewel's warmth is highlighted by its 18K yellow gold and platinum settings.

Once described as "today's Fabergé" by the Duchess of Windsor, jet-setting Madison Avenue-based designer David Webb was known for his innovative designs and celebrity clientele, which included the likes of the Duchess, Jackie Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor. Webb drew his inspiration from a multitude of sources, both foreign and domestic, and became enamored by mixing colorful gemstones with cutting-edge design. This fantastic piece of jewelry epitomizes his credo to "create jewelry like sculpture…conceiving and modeling it like a work of art."
