Artist Jewelry by Chris Steenbergen gold ring

Chris Steenbergen is one of a few well know Dutch artist jewelers in the second half of the 20th Century. This jewel was part of a private collection which we were lucky enough to be able to purchase. Ever since then we have been searching and studying into his background information to see where his jewelry was exposed and in what books he was mentioned. And it has been an interesting time.

We see this as a unique opportunity for collectors to obtain a collectible piece of future antique jewelry. Upon the purchase of this jewel, we will add the (Dutch) booklet 'Chris Steenbergen' by Marjan Unger (Stichting Fonds BKVB, Amsterdam, December 2000).

Our complete collection of: Chris Steenbergen jewelry.

Hallmarks: Legible remains of the Dutch control mark representing an oak leaf that is in use since 1953. There are no hallmarks of Chris Steenbergen on this ring. This ring belonged to his legacy and was bought together with many other pieces that carry his hallmark. It is not unlikely that (because of the very narrow shank/band) his hallmark has been polished out somewhere in the ring's lifespan.
