Style
Art Deco - The Art Deco is an eclectic artistic and design style born in Paris in the first decades of the 20th century. Emerging in the 1920s, this style persisted until after World War II. 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 height of high-end modern style in Paris. Championed by the top designers in the decorative arts, such as fashion and interior decoration, Art Deco influenced all areas 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 peaked 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.

Additional information
At this time, yellow or red gold jewelry was often adorned with diamonds set in a thin plate of platinum, elegantly integrated into the gold base of the piece. This method is also used for this jewel.
Diamonds
Six rose-cut diamonds. We do not have the weight of the diamonds, which is customary in our trade for rose cuts.
All the diamonds we offer are checked by the IJGC to determine whether they are natural or synthetic, and all the diamonds in this jewel are guaranteed 100% to be natural.
Gemstones
One ruby. We have not checked whether it is a lab-created ruby, as this information has no influence on the value of this jewel. At that time, both natural and lab-created rubies were used, more for their properties than for their intrinsic value.

Diamond is the birthstone (or month stone) for April and ruby for July.
