戒指已经成为当今社会文化的参照物：它可以是令人垂涎的珠宝，或是两个人在一起的象征。这不只是Bernhard Schobinger珠宝的个例！他在过去45年设计的作品反映了艺术和社会的发展过程。戒指作为一个时代的见证：建筑艺术、朋克美学、后现代主义等。

Bernhard Schobinger是当代最为突出、严谨的珠宝艺术家，他曾对自己的设计进行大改革。他摒弃世俗材料，青睐那些在感情上或理论上更有表现力的材料。

The ring is a significant cultural reference in our society: it bears a coveted diamond or is a symbol of togetherness. This is not the case with Bernhard Schobinger! His objects created over the last 45 years reflect artistic and social developments. The ring as the witness of an era: concrete art, the aesthetics of punk, postmodernism and so on.

Bernhard Schobinger is one of the most provocative, critical, and artistically inspiring contemporary jewelry artists, who has revolutionized his craft. He has turned away from conventional materials, in favor of those that have an emotional quality or a conceptual value. He interprets the piece of jewelry as a contemporary witness of our society.

The book is based on an overview of nearly all the rings that Bernhard Schobinger has created over the last 45 years. It is conceived as a reference work and documents nearly half a century of the design and creative power of this Swiss artist.
