Italian 800 silver ring inspired by the Greek myth of Leda and the Swan. Sculptural design with a modernist aesthetic featuring a female figure and swan in relief, crafted in contemporary 20th-century workmanship.
The piece depicts the mythological scene of Leda embracing the swan, a classic iconography linked to the god Zeus who transforms into a white swan to seduce Leda, the queen of Sparta. The modeling shows fluid lines, organic volumes, and an artistic approach typical of the modernist style reinterpreted in contemporary Italian jewelry. Its enveloping and detailed composition makes this ring a prominent piece for collectors of figurative and mythological-themed jewelry.

What you are buying (important)
We sell antique and vintage items. These are not new or recently manufactured products. Due to their age and previous use, they may show signs of wear, marks, scratches, minor losses, or variations inherent to the passage of time. These characteristics are part of their nature and are not considered defects. We recommend carefully reviewing the photographs, as they show the actual condition of the piece. If you need to confirm a specific detail before purchasing, please contact us.
Photos and color
The photographs are taken under artificial light. For this reason, the color may vary slightly depending on your screen and lighting. If color is critical for you, we can send you additional photos taken in natural light to get as close as possible to the actual color.
Patina and cleaning
Many pieces develop a patina over time. We don't remove it, as it's a natural process that can take decades to form and, in many cases, contributes to the piece's aesthetic value and character.
If you decide to clean or polish, do so carefully and with the material in mind. The buyer should make this decision, as cleaning can affect the appearance, authenticity, and, in some cases, the value. If you need cleaning instructions based on the material, please contact us and we'll guide you.
