Moonstone Ring 18k c1960s Burch Switzerland
SOLD

Circa 1960s, 18k, Burch, Zurich, Switzerland.  Designed by Kurt Aepli, renowned Swiss master goldsmith, designer, and teacher, this ring is an impeccable example of his approach to contemporary jewelry. Its essence is an organic oval inside oval motif. Elegantly simple, the negative space around the moonstone enhances the design and is a theme he frequently explored. The 10.0-carat moonstone adds color and depth while the chunky dimensionality of the massive form gives the ring visual gravity. Flawlessly fabricated, this is a refined example of Swiss modern design. Excellent condition.

Remarks from Lawrence Jeffrey: "As a teacher at the Zurich School of Applied Arts, Kurt Aepli influenced generations of goldsmiths. For 35 years his teachings in special subjects were compulsory. Experienced goldsmiths came from around the world to apprentice with him. He said, 'In Nature, there are no wrong colors, shapes or sounds.' In a quiet and unassuming way, he was an artistic rock star!"
