David Webb Rock Crystal and Hammered Gold Bombé Ring

Dating from the 1960s-1970s, this hammered 18K gold and rock crystal bombé ring was created by David Webb, New York. The ring is set with a high domed rock crystal cabochon with a faceted pavilion above a hammered gold mount with an obliquely ribbed high-relief surface.  Oversize and playful, this bold volumized ring belongs to the firm’s collection of “solid gold fun” jewels, Webb’s exuberant and modern take on the beauty and timelessness of ancient handmade gold work.
