Isabetta Mouro Ring

A tastefully designed Mouro ring, jewelled with Diamonds, Tsavorites, Rubies, Red Stones, Tsavorites and freshwater Pearls.

The delicate face of the Mouro has been carved skillfully from ebony wood, which is finely textured with a smooth finish when polished, making it valuable as an ornamental wood. Each side of the ring shank is set with Diamonds and Tsavorites. The rose pink Indian turban is embellished with carved leaf Jade, baguette Diamonds and fresh water Pearls. Both the ear studs are set beautifully with Rubies. The collar is fully adorned with carved tulip red stones, Tsavorites and fresh water pearl.

For over two decades, Lotus Arts de Vivre has been creating one of the most iconic pieces of jewellery, the Tête de Maure, also known as or mouros or morettos, which were the rage of Venetian high society since the 17th - 18th century as a result of an obsession with orientalism. Mouro Jewelry originated in medieval Venice when it was fashionable for high class Venetians to be followed by young boys, called Mouros dressed in extravagant jewels and fabulous costumes. Even when this practice stopped, people continued wearing jewelry depicting these gorgeous boys as good luck charms.
