CHRISTOFLE - Gold and Silver Fluted Bangle Ring

Vintage pinky finger band ring made of 18-carat solid gold (750 parts per thousand) and Sterling silver, hallmarked with an eagle-head hallmark and a diamond-shaped master goldsmith’s hallmark. French craftsmanship from the 1980s/1990s, signed “CHRISTOFLE” on the inside of the band. The ring features a wide band with three gadroons, with the gold gadroon sandwiched between the silver ones. It is centered with the same motif of three vertical gadroons. In 2025, the Museum of Decorative Arts dedicated a major exhibition to the Christofle silversmithing house. It aimed to demonstrate how, from its founding in the 1830s to the present day, this lineage of master silversmiths, founded by Charles Christofle (1805–1863) and Henri Bouilhet (1830–1910), has transformed the lines and designs of silverware to bring them into everyday life. This ring is part of that transition, as Christofle began creating jewelry of this type in the 1980s.
