ABOUT THIS RING

Instead of the tried and true Eagle, Benjamin Franklin proposed the Turkey for America's national bird. This red, white and blue beauty is portrayed in platinum, in multi-tiered relief, with resplendent diamond feathers, a ruby breast and a sapphire crown (plus a black onyx eye). Presumably made in the 1920s-1930s, this rare bird ring will be gobbled up quickly - never to be seen again. (This is the one-and-only turkey ring we've ever seen.)

About Art Deco Jewelry

Sleek and modern, Art Deco design brought jewelry into the machine age. Yet these stylish pieces still found room for the fine forms and lines of previous eras within their elegant architecture. In particular, we see many peaceful co-habitations of Edwardian and Art Deco styles together.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
