Tank The trend for bold, massive rings with regular, geometric shapes emerged in the late 1930s and reached its peak in the 1950s. The symmetrical Art Deco style was reinterpreted in a stronger and more daring form. The name “tank” likely comes from the resemblance of the ring’s shape to the track marks left by a moving tank. In this model, gold plays the leading role.
