Alan Davie (1920-2014) a rare turquoise mounted silver ring, the raised, rectangular plate with applied balls, the top set with turquoise cabochon and geometric circle motif, etched Alan Davie 50, 3cm long, (approximately O-P) Provenance Purchased by the vendor's father in the early 1950s probably in London. The vendor's father (a retired commercial artist) met Alan Davie through Eduardo Paolozzi, to whom he sublet a room in Holland Road, London. Alan Davie, although primarily known as a painter, produced jewellery in the 1940s and 1950s. He was asked to teach design at the Central School of Arts and Crafts with a view to developing the 'artistic' approach to Jewellery making. Sold through high end retailers including Harrods and Aspreys he also designed and made the jewellery worn by Vivien Leigh as Cleopatra in Anthony and Cleopatra. a comparable ring is held in the Victoria & Albert Museum collection (Circ.376-1961).
