At 1.6 × 2.3cm the face of the ring is generous, the scale allowing the contrast between the two materials to be fully appreciated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMauboussin, founded in Paris in 1827 and long established on the Place Vendôme, is one of the great French jewellery houses — a maker whose work sits alongside Cartier and Van Cleef \u0026amp; Arpels in the hierarchy of Parisian fine jewellery. A signed Mauboussin piece carries the full weight of that heritage. The ring is signed to the inside of the shank: \u003cem\u003eMauboussin Paris 750 T51 A3408\u003c\/em\u003e, with French assay and maker's marks to the outside of the shanks.
