Some of Our Favorite Art Deco Jewelry Pieces

Perhaps one of the most famous visual arts design styles to hit American shores after World War I, Art Deco underscored the country’s bustling glamour, quest for magnificence, and overall high spirits that found expression not only in wearable art but also in entertainment and fashions.

The Art Deco motif called for the use of platinum, gemstones and simplified styles. Settings and basic shapes capitalized on rich colors and geometric forms. Ornamentation ran the gamut from minimalist to lavish. Inlays, the use of diamonds and gold tones were favorites in the American market.
