The trend for these massive rings with regular, geometric shapes emerged in the late 1930s and flourished in the 1950s. The symmetrical Art Deco style was reinterpreted in a bolder and more powerful way. The name Tank (from the English word for "tank") likely comes from the resemblance of the ring’s shape to the track marks left by a moving tank. In this design, gold plays the leading role.
