French ring by the firm ORANOR made of silver with an 18-karat gold top application. The design features a semi-spherical central motif decorated with star-shaped openwork and small set colorless imitations, accompanied by undulating shoulders that provide volume and a character very typical of French jewelry from the first half of the 20th century.

Made approximately between 1930 and 1940, it responds to a transitional design between late Art Deco and the early forms of French Retro style. The combination of silver with 18-karat gold was a common solution in quality French jewelry, allowing for the creation of impactful pieces with an elegant contrast of metals. The brand ORANOR, attributed to the Établissements Lucien Desmousseaux of Paris, marketed this type of jewelry during the first half of the 20th century. It is a very representative piece of French design from the period, with a sculptural silhouette and openwork decoration that retains all the personality of European jewelry prior to World War II.

Things you should know

What you are buying (important)

We sell antique and vintage items, not new or freshly manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, small losses, or variations typical of the passage of time. These characteristics are common in pieces with history and are part of their condition.

We recommend that you review the photographs carefully, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm any details before purchasing, please write to us.

Photos and color

The photographs are taken with artificial light, so the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is a deciding factor for you, we can send you additional photographs taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the true tone.

Patina and cleaning

Many pieces have a patina as a natural consequence of the passage of time. We do not remove it, as it may have taken decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the character and appearance of the piece.

If you decide to clean or polish a piece, do so with caution and keeping the material in mind. Improper cleaning can alter its surface, patina, appearance, and in some cases, its value. If you need guidance on cleaning a specific material, contact us and we will help you.
