Art Deco
If you’re more into sleek pieces with geometric patterns, vintage jewelry from the Art Deco period may just be what you are looking for. This period was a siren call for those were looking for something new and exciting. The Art Deco period was from around 1920 to 1935 and featured jewelry that was quite different from the styles of previous periods, opting for bright colors and geographic lines rather than soft colors and smooth curves. The media fed the Jazz Age frenzy in the radio, movies and fashion magazines, where we saw movie stars replace royalty for celebrity status and power. Along with crisp lines and bold colors, this period features hot jewelry made in platinum and decorated with sparkling diamonds and brilliantly hued color gemstones in abstract designs.
