A pendant reflecting the elegance of the Art Deco era, dating from the 1920s, probably of Belgian origin. In good condition, it highlights the geometric shapes and abstract motifs characteristic of the era, embodying the enthusiasm for modernism and luxury of the time. Made in platinum, it is adorned with 98 old European and single-cut brilliant diamonds, totaling approximately 5.57 carats of H/J, vs/i quality, whose integrity is preserved by careful setting. To complete this brilliance, 14 laboratory baguette-cut sapphires reflect the importance given to beauty rather than material value. A piece where the whisper of history meets the glamour of the Roaring Twenties.

Style:
Art Deco - The Art Deco is an eclectic artistic and design style that finds its origins in Paris in the first 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 height of high-end modern style in Paris. Championed by the best designers of the decorative arts, such as fashion and interior decoration, the Art Deco influenced all areas of design throughout the 1920s and 1930s, notably architecture and industrial design, as well as visual arts such as painting, graphic arts, and cinema. At the time, this style was perceived as elegant, glamorous, functional, and modern.

Stylistic features:
Abstract motifs and geometric shapes are typical of the Art Deco period. The Art Deco moves away from the soft pastels and organic forms of its predecessor, Art Nouveau, and draws inspiration from many styles and movements of the early 20th century, 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. While many design movements have political or philosophical roots or intentions, the Art Deco is purely decorative.
