The supple elegance of the softly-flowing form and the brilliance of the diamonds set in fine waving lines fascinate the eye from the outset. A concealed mechanism only becomes apparent on closer inspection, stimulating the curiosity of jewellery lovers. Like a classic portrait locket, the ring can be opened, revealing a view of a golden frame encompassing the precious photograph or hand painted miniature. This personal secret is only revealed to the wearer and those that she permits to share it.
In the Renaissance era so-called locket rings were highly popular. The artistic miniature portraits were frequently produced in complex enamel painting. Inside the secret capsule other secrets could also be concealed, such as medicine or even poison. Rings such as these rranged weddings, established kingdoms and could also destroy them.
The Secret Capsule ring complements the successful Calima collection, which is characterised by the unusually fine and complex setting of the diamonds in the so-called guilloche pavé typical of Victor Mayer. It is produced in a limited edition, in white gold or red gold.
The intelligent necklace of the collection is unique. Using a clasp system developed specifically for the ERA collection, it can be worn as an imposing necklace or an ingenious combination of shorter necklace and matching bracelet - depending on the wishes and clothing style of the wearer.
