Carrera y Carrera 18k White Gold Fighting Cherubs Open Back Ring

This clever ring makes me laugh every time I look at it.  It features two cherubs crafted in 18k White gold, fighting with each other.  One is blowing a horn as loud as he can, while the other tries to hold his ears – to no avail.


While the ring is slightly adjustable with an open back  – and great for someone whose fingers might swell slightly during a 24-hour period – it is 14mm wide, basically a size 6.5 and weighs 6.6 grams. However, you would have to be careful not to expand it too much because of the ring's construction.


Carrera y Carrera was established in 1885 when Saturio Esteban Carrera opened a small jewelry shop in Barrio de las Letras - since then, the brand has become world famous for its incredibly crafted rings, bracelets, necklaces and brooches that depict mythical and/or heavenly faces and creatures. Unfortunately, after almost 150 years in the business, Carrera y Carrera folded in 2019... making all their surviving pieces automatic collector’s items.
