 Since the Middle Ages, the city of Limoges has seen the development of several successive methods of enamelling which have made its reputation. The technique of painted enamels, which appeared in the 15th century. and fell into disuse at the end of the 18th century, became fashionable again at the beginning of the 20th century, particularly within the Art Deco movement (1920s-1930s), as this ring testifies.
