- Lot Description
Annette Ferdinandsen 18K yellow gold cocktail ring featuring a large rectangular emerald. Designer signed. Ring size 8.75. Emerald measures approximately 15mm x 20mm. Total weight: 13.3 grams.
Spectacular Annette Ferdinandsen cocktail ring featuring a large rectangular emerald (approximately 15mm x 20mm) in a substantial 18K yellow gold setting. This bold piece exemplifies Ferdinandsen's ability to create jewelry that is both sculptural and supremely wearable.
Annette Ferdinandsen is celebrated internationally for her nature-inspired jewelry that references organic forms - flowers, branches, insects, marine life - while maintaining clean, modern lines. Her work is represented in museum collections and carried by prestigious galleries worldwide. Unlike many contemporary jewelers who work primarily in silver or lower-karat golds, Ferdinandsen favors high-karat gold for its warmth and malleability.
This emerald ring demonstrates her architectural approach to jewelry design. The setting is both bold and refined, allowing the emerald to command attention while the gold mounting provides structural integrity and aesthetic balance. The scale of this piece makes it a true statement ring, perfect for collectors who appreciate jewelry as wearable sculpture.
Museum Connections: Ferdinandsen's work is collected by the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) in New York and other major institutions.
