In this chic, sophisticated, and stunning Jazz Age jewel, twenty bright translucent red rubies - hand-carved in a decorative fruit motif - gleam from within a free-form geometric array of bright-white and sparkling single-cut diamonds secured by a classic pavé-set diamond buckle clasp. Unsigned, but undoubtedly attributed to the Chicagoan/Parisian joint venture of the renowned jeweler and joiallier - Trabert & Hoeffer, Mauboussin. Dating from the peak of the Art Deco period - circa 1925. Total diamond weight, 5.00 carats; total ruby weight, 21.00 carats. Hand fabricated in platinum, it measures approximately 1/2 inch wide at the clasp by 7 inches long. There is an equally lovely multi-colored version which is featured in the book, The Jewels of Trabert & Hoeffer-Mauboussin, A History of American Style and Innovation.
