Style
Art Deco - The Art Deco is an eclectic artistic and design style born in Paris in the early decades of the 20th century. Appearing in the 1920s, this style lasted until after the Second World War. The term "Art Deco" was widely used for the first time after an exhibition in 1966, in reference to the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, which marked the peak of high-end modern style in Paris. Championed by the best designers of the decorative arts, such as fashion and interior decoration, Art Deco influenced all fields of design throughout the 1920s and 1930s, notably architecture and industrial design, as well as visual arts like painting, graphic arts, and cinema. At the time, this style was perceived as elegant, glamorous, functional, and modern.

Style specifics
Abstract motifs and geometric shapes are typical of the Art Deco period. Art Deco moves away from the soft pastels and organic forms of its predecessor, Art Nouveau, and draws inspiration from many early 20th-century styles and movements, including Neoclassicism, Constructivism, Cubism, Modernism, and Futurism. Its popularity reached its peak in Europe during the Roaring Twenties and continued in the United States until the 1930s. Although many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, Art Deco is purely decorative.

Diamonds
Five rose-cut diamonds. We do not have the weight of the diamonds, which is common in our trade for rose cuts.
All the diamonds we offer are checked by the IJGC to determine if they are natural or synthetic, and all the diamonds in this jewel are guaranteed to be 100% natural.
Gemstones
Six rubies (laboratory-grown) (also called Verneuil rubies). The fact that these stones are laboratory-produced has no influence on the value of this jewel. Both natural rubies and laboratory-grown rubies were used at that time, more for their effects than for their intrinsic value.
Birthstones
Diamond is the birthstone (or stone of the month) for April and ruby is for July.
