‘Crab’ Ring

Lucien Gaillard (1861-1933), Paris, c. 1900, gold and pearl

Lucien Gaillard was one of the leading French Art Nouveau jewellery artists. In terms of its shape, the powerful simplicity of this solid cast gold ring is typical of Gaillard’s nature-inspired designs. The pale pink natural pearl is pinched between the crab’s claws.
