I have said in the past that Erika Hult de Corral is one of the few designers in the world of Mexican silver jewelry for whom I will cross the 1980 threshold without second thoughts. I believe that her talent and the quality of her work combined with the fact that she is one of the few known female contributors to the country’s 20th c. Silver Renaissance more than warrants the… “transgression”...

This ring is another that I bought decades ago and that one almost never sees. I certainly have not seen one advertised or on a hand. It is a design that I feel resembles wrinkled cloth. According to Georg Jensen, it is no. 10351 and was designed by Gail Spence for Hans Hansen, a jewelry designer whose company later became a part of Georg Jensen. Inside it are printed the Georg Jensen mark in a circle of dots and 925S. There is something else very hard to decipher but my guess is that it’s...
