Art Deco Period: 1920-1935

The introduction of cubism into the art world after 1925 brought about the strong geometrical patterns and angular shapes associated with Art Deco jewelry today. Fine diamonds and platinum were used without regard to cost. Art Deco engagement rings with their fine diamonds and filigree work are still highly sought after today. Stones were cut into triangles, pentagons, trapezoids along with oblong shapes and emerald cuts. Pave set diamonds were often accented with caliber cut colored gemstones- rubies, sapphire, emeralds and onyx set in strong contrasting combinations. The Asian influence can be seen by the carved jade and coral in pendants, bracelets, and earrings, as well as carved rubies, sapphires and emeralds from India. Well known French designers were, Cartier, Bucheron, Van Cleef and Arpels, Fouquet and Mauboussin. For the Americans, it was Tiffany and Company and Harry Winston.
