Falko Marx Forged Gold Cone Ring, Germany, 1975

A flame held still.

Hand-forged in Cologne in 1975, this exceptional 18k yellow gold ring is the work of German artist-goldsmith Falko Marx—renowned for his commitment to pure form and material integrity. Its tapering silhouette, rising to a sharp, organic apex, evokes a droplet suspended mid-fall or a minimalist flame. The surface, left subtly brushed, reflects light with quiet precision. A rare expression of 1970s German studio jewelry—rigorous, sculptural, and arrestingly modern.

For the collector drawn to precision, presence, and the poetry of pure design.
