The story: A real epitome of the 40s, the tank ring owes its origin to the troubled period that Europe was living at the time. Gold was increasingly scarce and coveted, just like precious stones, which almost disappeared from the market. Gold possessions were melted into jewelry, easier to carry around. Tank rings offered heavy and imposing shapes and their patterns are reminiscent of tank tracks. This ring, with its rounded shapes, offers a clever mix of art deco style and the tank ring style.
